Detonator 40 Series: TV-Output Problems

With the release of the all new Detonator 40-series many user experience tv-output problems with it. We worked on that issue and discovered the reason. There are 3 different solutions to solve this problem.

Cause:

Refreshrate-tools like Refreshrate Fix MKII lead to this malfunction. The problem even occurs if one manipulates the refreshrate for 1024x768 though the tv is not able to display this resolution. We conclude that such tools cause changes the detonator 40 can't deal with.

Solution 1:

We recommend not using refreshrate-tools in order to avoid trouble. If there is such utility on your pc and you are not able to use the tv-output it might help to reinstall the Detonator-driver. In case you can't do without a refrechrate-fix in combination with a 40-series Detonator you should use Refresh-Lock only. This utility does not cause any changes in the registry and it will not harm your display-driver. However the program always needs to run in the background while playing Direct3D- and OpenGL Games
