i'm using BenQ XL2411T connected via DVI

i'm running at 120Hz using lightboost
(http://www.blurbusters.com/zero-motion-blur/lightboost/ )

Every time i use the ufo test it is saying 60Hz under "Refresh rate"

i have tried using both firefox and chrome (both compatible according to the website)

On my computer and on nvidia control panel it says im running at 120 hz but i cant get it to 120hz on the test?

Anyone know how to fix? or have the same problem/

That is some refresh rate demonstration you are talking about? I tried to google it, it just showed 3 rows at 15,30, and 60 fps. If you are getting the 120hz refresh rate in games and desktop I wouldn't be too concerned about it. From the website construction this demo looks really old, maybe 120hz wasn't at all common when it was put together-- I may be looking at the wrong thing though, never heard of ufo test before.

After a good hour of searching i found that having the Windows Aero theme disabled was causing it to lock at 60Hz on the browser. After enabling i was able to get 120Hz no problem.

But i believe it was working fine as you said, just got a little concerned when i tried the test.

Thanks for replying.
