I am trying to get the laptop to run at 144hz, I dont mind the lower quality. I am unable to find the driver specifically for qx2414, only qx2710. I installed it, ran the pixel patcher, only then I could see the 144 hz option in nvidia control panel and in the monitors tab. Under devices, the screen is labelled as 'generic pnp monitor' before I installed the driver
However I am still unable to get the monitor to run 144 hz, everytime i select the 144hz either in the NVIDIA control panel or under display setttings>display adaptor properties>monitor it will just zip to black, show the sign 'no signal' then go back to 60hz.

What adapter are you using? You need to use an active dual-link DVI adapter. Even then, you might not be able to get 144 Hz, but 120 Hz should be possible.

That qnix.inf file is for a completely different monitor with a different resolution. You shouldn't need an .inf file if the monitor supports 144 Hz natively.

What did you change in CRU?
