Oops - I've inadvertently clicked on a refresh rate within the options screen which my monitor won't support, and I'm therefore getting a corrupted screen within the game. I've had a poke about in the config files but couldn't find anything obvious to reset it with. Can anyone help out, or am I looking at a complete reinstall? Thanks in advance Rick.

If you changed that to a '1' then booted up into a window and changed back your refresh rate and then reverted to the 'start windowed=0'? Or press SHIFT-F4 to go to windowed mode while in game and change back your refresh rate? MRSisson -- LOAD "GPL",8 SEARCHING FOR GPL LOADING READY. RUN

I tried changing 'Windowed Link 0' to 1 without success. Thanks very much, Michael - greatly appreciated. Regards Rick.

Try the "Screen Info" line in cfg.txt (line #76 in mine). It has four numbers - not sure, but looks to me like the second one may be the refresh rate. - Doug
