nVidia refresh rate fix no longer works

[Rehevkor]

I recently installed a new hard drive and reinstalled Windows, drivers, etc, and I can't get my refresh rates set properly anymore. The last time I did this I installed my monitor driver, then used RefreshLock. It detected the correct refresh rates and automatically set them all to max possible by default.

Now it's detecting the wrong refresh rates. About half of the video modes are showing 150hz max, which is higher than what the monitor can actually do. RefreshForce is detecting the same incorrect refresh rates.

I've tried reinstalling the monitor driver and I even tried using the Win 2000 and 98 drivers instead of XP. It always detects the wrong refresh rates. Is there any way I can get one of this fixes to detect the correct rates, or figure out what they should be myself so that I can set them all manually?

On a side note, why in the name of GOD is this still a problem? Shouldn't nVidia or Microsoft have issued a real fix for 60hz always being used when higher refresh rates are available? So annoying

As I said, RefreshForce has the same problem. It attempts to set most of my video modes to refresh rates well above what this monitor can display.
