How do you set the Refresh Rate, in Windows 98? I’m trying to see what the refresh rates is on my monitor.

I click Properties on the desktop and go to settings; but I can’t find anywhere to set the refresh rate for the monitor.
Also, for windows 2000, how do you check the refresh rate?

In Windows 2000, right-click the desktop, properties, "Settings" tab, click "Advanced", "Monitor" tab, then change the refresh frequency.
In Windows 98, right-click the desktop, properties, "Settings" tab, click "Advanced", "Adapter" tab, then change the refresh rate.

These may vary depending on your video card and monitor.

For win98/2k, go to control panel | display | settings tab | advanced | monitor. Check your drivers. Also, when you configure a S3 ViRGE/MX video adapter on a Windows 98-based computer, you may not be able to change the refresh rate. Hope this helps!
