Make sure GeForce Experience is not installed. The refresh rates should be available in both the NVIDIA control panel and the Windows screen resolution settings.

Is "Strobing off" available in the menu? When you press Ctrl Alt +/-, does the refresh rate actually change?

Strobelight doesn't use those settings, so it doesn't matter. "Other applications" just means don't mess with the current color settings, while "Use NVIDIA settings" means use the custom color settings.

Hi Toasty,

Thanks for the quick response. Answers to your questions:

1. GeForce Experience not installed. The refresh rates show up in all menus as 120hz.
2. "Strobing off" is greyed out in the menu.
3. Pressing "Ctrl/Alt +/-" does nothing even though I checked all 3 boxes for 120, 110, and 100hz when I installed the program.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the beta 3 version - picked my 3 refresh rates - rebooted - only one refresh rate - 120 - shown - Strobing Off still greyed out.

Does that help?
