Troubleshooting Steps:​

  1. Driver Update:
    • Before changing the refresh rate, ensure that you have the latest driver for your monitor installed. Although you mentioned having issues updating the driver, it's essential to address any driver-related problems to enable proper functionality.
    []Manual Refresh Rate Adjustment:
    • Sometimes, Windows may not provide your monitor's native refresh rate in the display settings. You can try manually adding custom resolutions and refresh rates through the graphics control panel.
    [    ]Graphics Control Panel:
    • Access your graphics card control panel (NVIDIA Control Panel or AMD Radeon Settings) and check if you can set the refresh rate to higher values for your monitor.
    []Monitor Settings:
    • Check if there are any specific settings on the LG Flatron F700B monitor itself that might be limiting the refresh rate. Sometimes, monitors have built-in restrictions.
    [    ]Third-Party Tools:
    • Utilize third-party software tools like CRU (Custom Resolution Utility) to create custom resolutions and refresh rates for your monitor. These tools can sometimes bypass system limitations.
    []Compatibility Mode:
    • Try changing the compatibility mode for the driver installation package. Right-click on the installer, go to Properties, and choose a compatibility mode that matches Windows XP, which might help overcome installation issues.
    [    ]Compatibility Troubleshooter:
    • Use the compatibility troubleshooter in Windows 7 to run the driver installation package as if it were in Windows XP. This can sometimes help in installing older drivers on newer operating systems. If you encounter any specific error messages or difficulties during these steps, please provide more details so that we can assist you further in troubleshooting this issue. Let me know how these suggestions work for you!
