Whenever I load Crysis, the refresh rate on my TV goes to 24hz. It's really weird. Crysis and Warhead are the only games that are giving me this problem. Everything else runs at 60hz. 60hz is selected in Nvidia control panel. I'm guessing there must be an option to set the refresh rate in the Crysis ini but I can't find it.

Are you playing on a television or monitor?

Well I don't know whats up with 24hz but crysis is weirdwith refresh rates. If I use vsync it sets refresh at 50hz and searching around that seems to be the case with others as well. Is your problem only there with vsync or all the time?

If you're playing on a 1080p television you need to go into the nvidia control panel or CCC and create a custom resolution that is like one pixel away from 1920x1080. for example set it to 1920x1076. Another method is to press alt+enter repeatedly until it works. I've searched everywhere and these are the only two solutions that worked for me.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the link. This should do it. I'm using all the same stuff - Samsung HDTV @1920x1080, HDMI, Nvidia card, etc, so this should work. Thanks again.
