Modifying monitor drivers HELP! :(
Hey, im a gamer and i must have my 120 hz on my crt but im bottle necked by this annoying 85 hz... I have a DELL M992 monitor and my drivers are outdated for 32bit and im on a 64bit windows 7, i read a guide where you can modify your .inf file so it reads it. The inf was 32 bit but i think im doing it wrong can anyone help me out... This is the link to my drivers (multiple files) Drivers and Downloads
Heres the .inf file:

[DELL.NTamd64]
%M992%=M992.Install.NTamd64, Monitor\DEL300E
And i also added
HKR,"MODES\800,600",Mode1,,"30-96,100-160,+,+"
Is there something i am missing out on that needs to be there?? and also since im having the hardest time installing these drivers, does anyone know of a way i can get past the bottle neck 85 hz for my monitor i want to be able to run at 120hz ingames.
