Hi !
IÂ´m wondering why OpenScreen only have success, if i set SetRefreshRate() to 0 !

InitSprite()
SetRefreshRate(1)
If OpenScreen(640,480,32,"bla")=0
MessageRequester("","Screen",0):End:EndIf
Delay(1000)
CloseScreen()

Any help ?

MFG

Maybe the refresh rate you have set is not supported by the card but 0 tells the screen to open with a default or best choice refresh rate?

I tried several refresh rates my monitor supports. And it worked perfectly.

SetRefreshRate(1) is a bit low, isnt it ??

Better use SetFrameRate(1) if you really
want 1 frame / second.

All from 0 to 150 is useless. Typical refresh rate are 60 (hz), 75, 85, 100.. Just look in the sreen window config in the moniteur panel, you should see the available refresh rates.

I think he means that he tries every value from 0 up to 150 and everytimes he gets 0 as a result of fail.
