Best tool to lock refresh rates

scoopex · 27 Apr 2006 at 13:24

I have just installed countestrike source onto my new setup and it looks great but i cannot get it to enable v-sync.

Tried both the nvidia control panel and ingame tools to enable it but it just does not work you just get that screen tearing.

setup

acer al1916w ws monitor
xfx 7800 gt in (sli) mode
amd 4400+ cpu

TIA.

Thanks for the reply but i tried powerstrip and it had no effect at all on counterstrike source.Does seem rather odd that i cannot enable it on a widescreen monitor.

Just add the coolbits2.reg and use the refresh rate override option.

Edit- oh you have, maybe its an SLI issue? Works fine with every single GPU I've had.

Well i enabled the coolbits2.reg and went with one gpu and it worked.

In SLI mode it does not work. :mad:

You using old drivers? No vsync with SLI bug was fixed ages ago.

Yeah i am at present but can you point me in the right direction for the ones that fix this bug ?

Ex ATI fanboy ere.

TIA.
