ATi drivers causing problems
Why is it that if you do enough hard resets (using the reset button) on a system with an ATi video card, the driver will eventually boot with the display @ 60Hz? It does this on a 9800XT, two 9700 Pros, and an 8500 on multiple systems with countless windows installs. It thinks it's running at a higher refresh rate, but it's only running at 60Hz, and the only way to fix it is to go and change it from whatever it was set at to another refresh rate.
Why does it do this, and is there any way to fix it short of reinstalling the driver? It's irritating as hell.

There has been a long standing issue with going to 60HZ when in DX or OpenGL modes. I generally fix it by going into ATI displays/monitor properties and setting refresh override to "same as desktop" and that fixes it for me since I play my games in the same resolution as my desktop.
I'm just kinda stabbing blindly here, but it sounds good right ?
