Hello, I`m always playing those games in full-screen so the refresh rate always drops at 60Hz witch annoys my eyes. Can anybody tell me witch file could I edit so it would go on the at least 75Hz refresh rate?

Thank-you for future assistance,
>-Andy-<

There is a config file (ldw.ini) in the game's program folder. Turning the setting UseVsync on may help.

What type of video card do you have?

It's possible that yours includes a control panel along with the driver software where you can force fullscreen apps to keep the same refresh rate you normally use on your desktop.

It`s a NVidia 5500 FX and it does include a Control Panel so I will try there.
Thanks for the tip

EDIT: No luck, dosen`t have that option.

You might try the Omega Drivers for NVidia. They have a nifty control panel for Radeon cards with game-specific settings you can customize. Not sure if it is the same for NVidia or not because I've not had that type of card, but it could be worth a try.
