Well, if you feel familliar with registry (.reg) files, proceed to the Tools directory in the extracted FV4 package. There you'll find the folder called "Refresh_rate" and some .regs inside.
Their names are self-explaining: "800x600@85Hz" is 85 Hertz at 800x600 res. Double click to apply. Of course your monitor must support this mode; the latter "800x600@75Hz" will be the safe choice here. If you want to go higher,you can edit these .reg files by right-clickicking on them and chosing "edit", just remember the warning. Otherwise, look for Voodoo tweakers either on the main site or here: http://www.falconfly.de/
