How do you set the refresh rate for 3D games with Powerstrip?

I have downloaded powerstrip and installed it but I'm trying to figure out how to set the refresh rate for 3D games. In Operation Flashpoint, for example, that game allows you to set the refresh rate from within the game. I have a Sony G520 and I can set my refresh rate up to 100hz in the game. I then adjusted my monitor to get rid of the black space at the edges of the screen. Then when I open up Return to Castle Wolfenstein the screen space taken up by it is completely skewed, even though I set the resolution to the same size 1280x1024x32bpp. I'm assuming this is because the refresh rate is different. I'm also assuming that the refresh rate I set for the desktop has nothing to do with the refresh rate in the games...correct?

Anyway I went into PowerStrip and set up an Application profile for RTCW and I set the refresh rate and resolution to the same settings in Operation Flashpoint. Upon clicking this shortcut, however, the game loaded up and the picture was still skewed, so I guess that shortcut doesn't set the refresh rate for the 3D stuff. The reason I'm assuming this is true is because when I adjust the screen size to take up the black space and such, I typically have to do it for the 2D desktop and then again for the 3D desktop whenever I change resolutions.

Does anyone know how to set the refresh rate for 3D games with PS?

Thanks!!

I've been searching for this on the forums but I still can't find much.

I found something that works great for Nividia based cards

Alright, instructions:

1) Start up powerstrip
2) Right click, and go to Display profiles, open up the submenu and click on configure
3) Once in there, select the resolutio you want to use, and change to it
4) Once changed, click on advanced timing options, and change the refresh rate under Vertical Geometry to the preferred (In your case 100), then click apply. You will hear the monitor setting the refresh rate and the like.
5) Click ok, and u'll go back into the configure dialog. Click ok to exit out of the dialog. and Your Done!

Now everytime, you use that resolution, it will start at the custom refresh rate. If you want to do this for other resolutions, just use the above steps.
