Monitor Frequency and Res/colors

Hi,
I don't know if I'm alone with this problem, but when I start oTTD, my screen always goes to 60Hz, no matter the resolution.
I usualy run at 1024x768.
I must everytime go back to windows, (not exiting the game) and rise the freq. to 85Hz.

Is there any way to make the game use a higher freq or to be able to choose the freq. from within the game?

Also, when I exit oTTD, the display settings stay at 1024x768 at 256 colors.
They don't return to what I had before. I'd like the old settings to stick (usually 1280x1024, 85 hz and 32 bit colors).

I'm running Widnows 2000.

Thanks /Erik

there is a frequency-option in the openttd.cfg

in the [Win32] Area search for display_hz = 0
put your value instead of 0
this works fine on my machine

Ah great, worked just fine.
Also, now when I didn't have to change the frequency manually, display settings returned to what they were before upon exiting the game.
