Changing refresh rates in games for windwos xp

[dalilman52]

How do u change the refresh rate for a game run in windows xp? everytime i play a game, the refresh rate goes down to 60hz and it ****es the sh*t outta me...so any way i can change it in directx, nvidia properties....software tweaks are a last resort, i do not like using software to tweak my registry, i just dont feel safe w/ it, sometimes it doesnt work right...so any thing to help?

btw, i have tried doing the override refresh rate in dxdiag and it STILL doesnt work....still damned 60 hz in games...

hrmmmm.... sounds like the caca to me... The only time I've ever seen a refresh rate change really work in a game, is when it's controlled by the application....
