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. :sarc:

but i read that it must be 60 hz to be able to turn on vsync on Pro Evolution Soccer 2010.

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]

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

 

[seekermeister]

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

 

[rynio]

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.

 

[Orpheous]

Sorry it didn't help, it worked for me

As stated earlier, this has been discussed, disected and debated for days, weeks and months here - http://www.sevenforums.com/graphic-cards/1792-59hz.html. The thread is 30 pages long thus far, so...

It's an issue that up to this point has no fix! "Maybe" Microsoft will address it in a service pack or otherwise, until then, it's a Windows 7 issue that's here to stay.

However you could try this tutorial to see if it changes anything for you - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/7947-force-dvi-hdmi-resolutions-refresh-rates.html. I doubt it but...

The ATI 9.12 driver package seems to have fixed the 59Hz on my system with a 5870 card. It now reads 60Hz and matches what is in the CCC.

 

[sygnus21]

Well I just upgraded to the 9.12 drivers and checked to see if Windows was still showing 59Hz and it does, even though the drivers themselves read 60.

Not an issue here. I was just curious to see what these drivers did and wasn't surprised to see they had no effect.

Again, this is a Win 7 OS issue, especially since the video drivers themselves read the refresh rate of the monitor as 60Hz.

At any rate that's my two cents and i'm not stressing over the situation since I personally don't suffer any i'll effects in any apps or games.

Peace
