WinXP refresh rate issue & 9800 Pro?

So I've upgraded from Nvidia to Radeon (a 9800 Pro card is on its way)
and I'm wondering what Radeon users do about the Windows XP refresh
rate problem in games (always staying at 60Hz).

With my Nvidia card I used a 3rd party utility to change the registry
settings to override what Windows XP had set with my own frequency
settings.

What do I do now with my Radeon 9800 Pro? Does the Catalyst driver
handle this, or do I need another 3rd party utility? (If so, I guess
I'll be using RefreshForce).

thanks,

John
 
Go to Omegacorner.com (I think that's it, but you can Google to it) and
download the Omega version of the drivers for your card. It includes a
utility to force the refresh rate for games.

The catalyst drivers have it built in to them, you just have to set it
up.
