Since I'm using a laptop that has it's display hooked up straight to the Intel HD graphics instead of the Radeon one, I'm posing this to the CPU section.
So I've been using this LCD display kit from ebay on my old laptop LCD panel, connecting it to my current laptpp through an HDMI cable.
A few months ago when Intel had the old graphics control panel thingy I could change my refresh rate and in windows driver settings to 59Hz in it, which makes the HDMI output to the native resolution of 1280x800. Then some 99 updates later a lousy ass looking ui update came for Intel and removed the 59Hz refresh rate option, now it outputs to 1440x900 and there's no way of changing it. Even if I set the resolution to 1280x800, it upscales to 900p, then downscales back to 800p, resulting in a blurry image.
So how do I get the 59Hz refresh rate option back without uninstalling 99 updates in order to get the old driver working? ...because it automatically installs this new bloatware. btw, I need this fixed, to get my ass working on some drafts for college.
