empire earth startup=black screen

[pr0iv2 0]

i have windows 2000, and since i hate the 60 hertz refresh rate glitch, i disabled it with a display utility.

apparently there is a bug in empire earth where

the startup screen only runs in 60 hertz.

in other words, i get a blank screen on startup.

 

i am not planning on running this game at 60 hertz ever,

especially since i become nauseated when i watch the monitor at that frequency for too long.

 

is there a way to run in a window, or change the refresh rate?

awww come on, its been like a week.

im sure somebody knows how to help.

OK!!!!

if you are completely devoid of any ideas whatsoever, then what about this:

how can you use windows 2000 without disabling the 60 hz rate

and play games in 75 hz

thats primarily the problem.

the bootup screen in EE uses 60 hz, the game does not.

why it does this is a completely retarded idea, i cant explain it

but for me windows 2000 plays all games in 60hz if its enabled

i need to know if there is a way to keep 60 hz as an option

but not use it when necessary.

or if you can just adjust the game menu to use 75 hz refresh rate

radeon 9000
with the latest drivers for it
and dx9
and sp3
(win2k)

its not the driver, its the refresh rate.
the game's menu only runs in 60 hz
i disabled it. i need a way to run it in at least 75 hz
