I have big problem, can't change to 60 Hz refresh rate

When i click 60 Hz, and click ok, its still 59 Hz..
I really have to do it, because of few games, any solution?

IMO it makes zero difference what so ever. Windows 7 rounds the number down to 59hz Vista rounded up to 60Hz, it's that simple. Even the "so called" fixes for this make no difference at all.

You can of course use this tutorial to try and set the refresh rate to 60hz but it will probably just change back as soon as you restart and even if the setting holds it will make no difference at all.

And why you gave me the link for nvidia tutorial, i have ati..

rynio, please fill out your System Specs, it really does help others to help you

What driver version for the ATI 4800 series card do you have installed?
I'd suggest that you download the latest from ATI Support site.

i have the latest ati drivers 9.11 and windows 7 rtm 7600, still don't know how to fix it..

Orpheous · 16 Dec 2009

Not sure if there is any other way to fix this, but this is what I did, and it worked with Windows 7 64 bit and ATI 4870 running CCC 9.9

Click Start (Windows symbol)
type gpedit.msc into the search bar
navigate to: User Configuration, Administrative Templates, System, Driver Installation
Double click Code Signing For Device Drivers
Check the Enabled radio button
under Options, select Ignore in the drop down box
Reboot
Re-install CCC 9.11

I'm now running 9.10 with no problems :)

Do you have the driver for your monitor installed? That made a difference for mine.

rynio · 17 Dec 2009

i have driver on my monitor.

Orpheous i tried this method as you wrote, i ignored signing for device drivers while i had catalyst 9.11 and restart computer and reinstalled catalyst 9.11, and still same, no results.
