I have DOOM 3. But, it won't work. I've figured out that the problem is with the monitor refresh rate. DOOM 3 is trying to get my monitor to use a refresh rate that it is not able to use- thus forcing the monitor into standby.
So, the question is, how can I change the refresh rate for DOOM 3 so that I can play it?

Re: Monitor Refresh Problem
If you're using an nvidia card, go into the control panel for it. You should see a tab that says refresh rate overrides. Pretty self explanatory from there on.DPDarkPrimus wrote:I have DOOM 3.

I've already tried locking the refresh rate with Refreshlock, a free program that lets you... lock the refresh rate.
But to no avail.

Try a program called Refresh Force (or something like that), it allows you to easily fiddle with the refresh rate and could possibly solve your problem. I know I need it with Dominions 2 to overcome certain WinXP setting fuckups.
