Driver is an INF file, usually at monitortests.com/catleap.zip

Imported blank.dat file in CRU

The driver is not needed with CRU. Importing an extension block is required for EDID overrides to work properly with NVIDIA.

The driver is only needed if you're using the NVIDIA control panel: https://www.monitortests.com/catleap.zip (Install using the Device Manager -> Monitors -> Right-click "Generic PnP Monitor" -> Update Driver Software... -> Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer -> Have Disk... -> Browse for the Qnix.inf file -> OK -> Next -> Install this driver software anyway)

If you have Windows 8 or later, you have to temporarily disable driver signature enforcement to install it: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-can-i-i...windows-8/

Thanks for the reply. I had my first experience last night in overclocking with my new Catleap monitor. I amazed how easy it went and almost wonder if I am missing something because it all went "too good to be true". I received the monitor Monday after purchasing from Green-Sum on Ebay. I have been tempted to buy this for awhile and finally gave in. With no previous experience I overclocked to 120hz and tested no problems, but went with 100hz. I honestly believe it would run full time at 120hz no problem. I have not calibrated color yet using anything but the color calibration within Windows 7, but honestly it is beautiful. I am wondering if there is a website I can test on that will confirm I am actually running at what my settings say they are? Kudos to you guys that have put together all the files and instructions, which I downloaded and printed out to guide me.

What does it mean on testufo.com if the refresh rate says 67hz, but on my computer NVIDIA Control Panel, Windows Monitor settings and when I run dxdiag all say 95hz, which I have found is my sweet spot?

That means the test isn't working properly. What browser are you using? Chrome works best with the test. Make sure hardware acceleration is enabled in Chrome.

If you're using Windows 7, make sure desktop composition is enabled by using one of the Aero themes, not Basic or Classic. If you have multiple monitors, disconnect any other monitors because mismatched refresh rates can affect the test.

Thanks ToastyX. I am using IE11, but you were right, I was using Windows Basic theme. When I changed to an Aero theme the test detected my 95hz for refresh rate.

How do these fair against the newest beta drivers? (347.09) the non full patcher could only find the first value but i guess thats from nvidia fixing the full color range?

The patcher needs to be updated. I will need some time to work on it.

The patcher has been updated for 347.09.
