SETCK.EXE is a utility to let you set your monitor refresh rate. To set the
the refresh rate from win95 you need to switch to MS-DOS prompt full screen.
You can copy SETCK.EXE to any directory you like and run SETCK program.
Examples:
SETCK 35 => 1024 X 768 i 43Hz ; 640 X 480 60 Hz; 800 X 600 56 Hz
SETCK 37 => 640 X 480 70 Hz
SETCK 48 => 1024 X 768 60Hz ; 800 X 600 72 Hz
SETCK 56 => 1024 X 768 70 Hz
If you want you can put into autoexec.bat so every time you restart your
machine the refresh rate will automaticly take effect.
Otherwise you need to set refresh rate everytime your win95 show up.
