1. Why it need?
|
|
---------------------
|
|
The problem of "60 Hz" is falling stand before of users of MeOS in modern condisions.
|
|
As a rule, most modern computers consist of 17" monitor (all written later is not actual
|
|
for owners of LCD monitors). If on 14" or 15" monitors the problem of "60 Hz" not a
|
|
main, but with 17" monitor it's a most pantfull. And with more size monitors I have no
|
|
words for discusion: it's a slade-show. Of couse, all of the upper correlated with
|
|
standart interface of VESA. As for VESA 3.0 - yes, interface have more rich features,
|
|
but it have no possiblity of change videomode in protect mode (the Virtual86 not realized
|
|
in MeOS !!!!!).
|
|
|
|
The MeOS not known as a detected devices on boot, it setting of standard VESA videomode
|
|
with 60 Hz vertical refrash rate !
|
|
|
|
This programm is a FreeWare. And distribute "AS IS ...". Author not
|
|
carreing responsibility for probable damage :) .
|
|
|
|
!!!!!_Warning_!!!!!:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
! On this time programm have a EXPERIMENTAL status (!). And this reason you have a !
|
|
! chance destroy own device (monitor). Espesialy this taking attantionall users with !
|
|
! monitor without of rate protection. !

2. Installation.
|
|
-----------------
|
|
Extract file VRR (it's ordinary executed MeOS file) from archive and situated it on
|
|
C:\ root or MeOS floppy. In main, VRR may situated on any directory (you must have
|
|
possibility run this file under MeOS).
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Using.
|
|
----------
|
|
The VRR is a standard executed file of Menuet Operation System. You may send on
|
|
execute this file by SYSTREE or MASH.
|
|
|
|
After redraw of programm window will be present of current vertical refrash rate
|
|
and table with possibiling videoregimes. It's sorrably, table have VERY small
|
|
videomode (the programm is experimental).
|
|
|
|
Change of videomode
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
You may select interesting videomode using _ONLY_ numerical keys: 1,2,3,4 and 5.
|
|
In a first step you must select resolution of videoregime. In a second step - need
|
|
select of vertical refresh rate. All changes are indicated on screen in a the
|
|
programm window. After select videomode, to set mode you must press "Enter" or
|
|
button "Ok". Notification: in this time all executing MeOS programs will be
|
|
killing. It this needed for minimize artefacts of the screen. After change videomode
|
|
you have a two way. First way: you can not any doing and after 13 seconds waiting
|
|
return last videomode. Second way: press two-three time any key or some time mouse
|
|
click on artefacts of VRR (or this plase) and fixing selected mode. Also you have
|
|
possibility modification of horizontal screen size by button "Left"\"Right" or keys
|
|
"+\-". For correcting your select you may use button "Cancel".
|
|
|
|
Also in programm realized return at initial videomode with 60 Hz vertical refresh
|
|
by button "Default". And you may return in last videomode by button "Return" or
|
|
key "r"
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
In this time programm may change vertical refresh rate _ONLY_ by lowing screen
|
|
resolution, because this method will be using at most part videocard
|
|
(VGA, SVGA or modern)
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
If you have videomode 1024x768x60Hz and if you want select 800x600x95Hz, you must
|
|
press key "3" and key "1". After that key "Enter" or button "Ok". And after redraw
|
|
screen two time click on last program window position. If need using button
|
|
"Left\Right" for correcting horizontal size.
