    What is rule of thumb for refresh rate?

    What are the guidlines (rule of thumb) for the refresh rate to use? I suppose you don't necessarily use the highest refresh rate the hardware permits -- but then what?

    new video install is confusing

    Are you saying the steps that are outlined above are not a problem? And "remove any graphics utilities that may be instaled for current/previous display adapters" means the same as "remove the drivers for the current video card"? Yeah, the instructions that followed also say that once the...
