Please help a newb
I have a Samsung tablet/pc thing and would like the refresh rate to be 40Hz. It has intel hd graphics 3000 and I understand this could be problematic, as the intel control panel only allows 60Hz and this is a 2nd gen intel (Sandy Bridge), so the custom intel driver may not work as it only seems available for 4th gen+. I want to have 40Hz (or even 50) at all costs, what are my options? I've been reading about DTD Calculator and HZTool but I don't know very much about them

Thanks for any advice

This might be the only method that would work for your GPU: https://www.codeground.net/howto/overrid...-registry/

Thanks for the reply. Should I try that instead of DTD Calculator? They seem somewhat similar from my understanding. Any thoughts on this? http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Syst...Tool.shtml

You can try DTD Calculator, but it's for calculating DTDs using another method. The page for the instructions doesn't seem to exist anymore. I found a copy here: https://web.archive.org/web/200809141852...cs/239.htm

Hz Tool is really old. That's for Windows 95/98/Me. It won't work with anything newer.

I think the EDID override method is more likely to work. CRU can export various text formats that can help you get the data you need to do this method, but you'll probably have to craft a .reg file manually using the instructions on the page I linked.
