rgodart
I got stutter when playing CMR2 with any detonator version (rigth now i'm using version 27. 70). The framrate is about 30 to 40 FPs which is smooth, but sometimes the game stutters as if it's swapping, the framerate stays well above 30.

Is anyone using the new Nvidia 27. 50 drivers from Visiontek? can we choose game refresh rates above 60hz with those drivers in Windows 2000 sp2? or do we have to wait for the new Nvrefix? Thanks for any help.

Alt+Tab combo: can it be disabled in games?

Ron_Jeremy
I was wondering if the Windows alt+tab key combo can somehow be disabled while I play Counter-Strike? I use alt to move backwards, & sometimes hit tab to do a quick check to see how many enemies remain, only find to find myself staring at the desktop.
