Re: [DUG]: Tip for sore eyes

Wow.. I just turned it to 70 hertz from 60 by telling Windows that my monitor could do 75hertz (Previously it forced me to keep 60 hertz.. I had "Default monitor" installed), and the image seems to be much better! Thanks for the tip.   Cheers, Nicholas Sherlock ----- Original Message ----- From: Conor Boyd To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 8:41 AM Subject: RE: [DUG]: Tip for sore eyes You mightn't notice it Nicholas consciously, but you'll still find yourself feeling better running at a higher refresh rate - the higher the better ;-)  Has to be 85+ for me, or I'll start calling the OSH guys!   Bigger the monitor, the better too!  Mmmmm, 21" like I used to have would be nice, although 2x17"s is good at the minute...   Cheers,   Conor -----Original Message----- From: Nicholas Sherlock [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]   While my screen runs fine at 60 hertz (No visible flicker), my friends all "Need" to run their screens at 75+ hertz. I guess it depends on the screen? Or maybe I just don't notice any flicker? ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]   My screen has flickered at the corners quite badly for quite some time. I tried swapping to another screen on an empty desk, and it was worse! But problem solved today. My screen's refresh rate was set far too low (60 Hertz). I've increased it to 85 Hertz (my monitor can handle it) and now I have a perfectly still screen. Awesome!   So if you have a flickering / shaky screen, and haven't checked your refresh rate, it might help. Guess everyone knows this but me!
