Hello everybody!

I'm experience problems with Tseng ET6000 card. The problem is that it don't
'remember' refresh rates. My standard settings is 1024x768x16@90 Hz, but
when any program change it, refresh rate become 60 Hz. Slider in Display
properties shows that current refresh rate is 90, but really it's only 60. I
have to change it to 75 manually, and when it asking me save or not press
'Cancel' in order to get real 90 Hz. It's very tiresome to do it every time.
I think it's drivers bug, but Tseng Labs disappeared few years ago, and they
don't write drivers anymore. In Win2K it works properly (but I cannot use
more than 75 Hz), but in Win95, 98 and ME the problem is present (I don't
know whats about NT). Maybe there are unofficial drivers? Sandard Windows
driver don't allow to use more than 75 Hz, but Tseng's one is buggy. I've
tried to use third party utilities (Hz Tool, Power Strip), but it didn't
help. Please answer if you know what to do.
