Default Nvidia Refresh Rate Fix Problem

I thought I read that in the FINAL version - the Nvidia Refresh Rate Fix Problem was addressed?

I never tried the demo, but ran and bought the game today and it was doing the black screen and drop me to desk top thing.

After I removed the Nvidia Refresh Rate Fix - it seems to be working.

But I hate having to run this program back and forth and resetting my computer in order to play this 1 game on my system.

Will this be fixed anytime soon?

Thanks

Install the 1.1 retail patch the do the following:

From the readme file:

-Fixed refresh rate locked to 60 hz in Win2k and XP machines. We're working on getting this fix for Win98 and ME machines, but we're waiting for dev support from Microsoft before we can proceed. To enable this on Win2k and XP machines do the following:
-Open the videodefault.con file found in Settings\VideoDefault.con
-Edit the line: renderer.allowAllRefreshRates # (where # can be replaced by 0 or 1)
-Changing this value to one will allow you to select the refresh rates from the Options>Video section of the in-game frontend. NOTE: the game will default to 640x480.
