I was wandering if there is any way to increase the refresh rate when playing DOS games (such as Advanced Civilization) - either running under windows or in real DOS. The default of 60Hz is making my eyes hurt. Maybe I need to download special DOS drivers?The device is Riva TNT. Thanks in advance.

I've checked your page and downloaded SciTech Display Doctor(both for DOS and Windows). Then I checked the readme.txt and realised that my card(chip) is not supported.
Should I download other programs from the page? Could you give me some information about them? Thanks for the help anyway.
