I switched Windows to 1024x768x8 and got 75Hz. I then ran XWin -fullscreen and got 1024x768x8 @ 75Hz. I then quit XWin and reset Windows to 1024x768x24 @ 75Hz. I then ran XWin -fullscreen -depth 8 and got 1024x768x8 @ 75Hz! Strange. I'll chaulk it up to some funny business with DirectDraw or the Video Driver. Thanks. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx
