| 712419 | 2008-10-15 17:44:00 | I tried that. It didn't work. Maybe I have to edit Vista's virtual Registry? Perhaps a System Restore will work? I can boot from the Vista DVD and go from there to do so. |

| 712420 | 2008-10-15 18:11:00 | Guess I'll try a System Restore. If it doesn't work I'll have to revert it as I've installed Spore since. :annoyed: | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 712421 | 2008-10-15 18:17:00 | That should fix it - boot from the Vista DVD, run restore back to before what ever it was you installed and it caused the problem. When you boot into restore you have the option to go back further than the recommended restore - personally I would go back 1 day further. |

| 712422 | 2008-10-15 18:19:00 | I've just realized that it can't undo a restore when I boot from the DVD - so I risk losing an installation of Spore. (It's my friend's copy though.) And the dates are all wrong. :( Hooray, it worked! :D Thanks guys. :thanks |

| 712423 | 2008-10-15 18:34:00 | Just an idea...If he booted with a XP CD or UBCD4Win/bartPE or a linux live CD would he see anything? If he could, could he change the refresh rate there? Yes, but it would only apply to the currently booted CD. It wouldn't automatically change it for everything that gets booted. Such settings are OS dependant |
