in your profile's video.con you'll find a line something like this
renderer.allowallrefreshrates 0
change the zero to 1
otherwise you're stuck with 60hz

Hi Dr. Ratt,
That parameter is already set to 1...
renderer.setFullScreen 1
renderer.fieldOfView 1
renderer.globalLodRadius 1
renderer.globalLodRadiusScaleFactor 5
console.showStats 0
renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 1

Thanks for the help though. Any other thoughts send them through :-)

Patch it and if you still have a problem check you cpu temp and/or
your motherboard board temp (a fix simply be a little thermal grease
in between the cpu and heatsink).
