    Theres a post on reddit that should help almost everyone who has a laptop and cant change their refresh rate in the nvidia control panel.
    Basically, use CRU (Custom Resolution Utlity) to add a new profile with 60hz, then go to the intel graphics control panel and set it to the new profile, and thats it.

    For creating the custom profile all you need to do in CRU is double click your current profile then click the copy button,
    close that window and click the add button under the current profile, click the paste button in the new window and replace 120hz
    (or whatever your current hz is) with the new setting ie. 60 or 90hz.
    Then you can press ok and close the application, after that all thats left to do is open the restart.exe that came with CRU, itll restart your screen, wait until its done and restart your laptop, you should be able to set your screen to your new refreshrate in the intel graphics settings now. Once youve started the game you can turn it back to your normal refreshrate.

    No. You might be free and lose about hacking and cracking your system to bypass manufacturers hardlocked settings but Im not comfortable with doing that. I will have to sit and wait for SE.
    Appreciate that you are trying to help and it could help some people, but I will just have to be stuborn and wait it out, and if they dont fix it I will just stop playing.

    Sorry if post seems negative, im just looking forward to playing shadowbringers MSQ and access the shadowbringer areas without crashes.

    This is a quick warning for all of you who use laptops:

    If your screen is locked to 144hz for example, changing that refresh rate by the use of external tools will void your warranty. Do so at your own risk.
