TP 701 - External monitor refresh rate
Applicable to: World-Wide
Description:
External monitors flicker when attached to ThinkPad 701
Solution:
The ThinkPad 701 external display refresh rate is 60Hz (640x480, 800x600) and 43Hz interlaced (1024x768).
However, there is an undocumented, unsupported mode 1024x768 at 60Hz noninterlaced (which looks much better). This is only implemented
since BIOS "N". To select this mode, press Fn+left-shift together, then Fn+Enter together, then reboot.
