Yeah, with STeem i run at 100Hz and its smooth as silk and flicker-free. Saint only lets me go down as far as 56Hz and up as far as 85Hz so I can't get good results.

leonard wrote:Hey unseen menace, could you help me to solve that strange refresh rate problem? Do you have DxCapViewer installed on your machine (if you have DirectX SDK then it's installed in tools/bin directory). If not I guess you could find that program as a standalone (google is you friend). DxCapsView is an official Microsoft program.

I don't know exactly what Steem uses. But Steem uses a very old DirectX version, it works both on Win 9X and on Win NT 4.

Well I don't know what programs you've tried but as an example the title music for Turrican II not only sounds too fast at 56Hz but the sound quality suffers as well. Maybe its just my setup?
... Until leonard can help
My Windows desktop certainly runs at 100Hz
