Just edit the inf file for the refresh rates you want.

Just to clarify, here is the author's site for the Refresh Rate Fix:

http://www.planetquake.com/ztn/nvreffix/

The current ver 2.1 build 169 doesn't work for the 27.xx drivers, but he's working on a new one.

BTW, I'm sticking with the 26.53 drivers, for GF3T5, until better Nvidia drivers are released. On my sys(AbitTH7II,P4,GF3T5,rdram), the 26.53 outperformed all other Nvidia versions, including 27.42 & the refresh rate fix build 169 works, no inf swapping.
