Someone here pointed me to this very cool little utility called "Hz Tool", this is a quote from his site: HZ Tool is a freeware tool for Windows 95/98 that lets you set the refreshrate for all resolutions, including the ones that Windows normally don't let you use. You can also change resolution and bit-depth.
