unattended RefreshForce

[shapeless]

well in case anyone wants their xp install to get the highest refresh rates possible, i made a little vbs file for that.

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.Shell")

WshShell.Run ("%systemroot%\install\reforce\reforce.exe")

WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys "{TAB}"

WScript.Sleep 250

WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"

WScript.Sleep 250

WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"

WScript.Sleep 250

WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"

WScript.Sleep 250

WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"

WScript.Sleep 250

WshShell.SendKeys "%{F4}"

BUT it only works if your monitor and video card have been detected already.

I put it in my RunOnceEx, and at the end, it will reboot(refreshforce requires a reboot anyway) and it works well.

also if there is a better way to get max refresh rates, like a silent way, let me know

if it is an nvidia video card (like mine) run this registry tweak from RunOnce (I have my drivers installed well before this through PnP hardware detection)

refresh.reg
