Refresh Rates

I have a Voodoo 3 2000 PCI and a crappy 15 monitor. Is there a program I can install that will set the resolution of different resolutions? I use a 1152x864 desktop resolution but 800x600 for games and if i use a 1152x864 desktop the 800x600 refresh rate is 60 hz when it should be 85 hz.

u must make sure that ur monitor can handle the high resolution, the monitor i'm using now can go to a max of 1024x320 but i have a good card capable of doubling that resolution, it all depends on ur graphics card and ur monitor that is capable.

OP
My monitor is capable of doing 85hz at 800x600 but only about 60 hz in 1152x864 and Win 2k doesn't auto change the refresh rate.
