Dx8
« on: December 25, 2000, 11:47:00 AM »
Heyas I recently installed Dx8.

   I got a real scare when I did lol.  I installed Dx8 and when told to reboot, I did.  When the pc booted, i could hear a loud, high pitched sound from the monitor (Opti Q71).  I run 1024 on my desktop at 85hz usually.  For some reason, perhaps it was Dx8, but when I checked display properties I noticed refresh rate was set to optimal.  I immediately set it to 85hz and the sound discontinued.  Heh I was panicking when I heard the sound, thought my monitor was going to pop.
v3 3000 agp with 1.07 drivers.

Anyone else notice something similar?
BTW everything works fine now, just thought I would mention this to warn anyone considering installing Dx8.
