Pixio PCX32C Help with EDID [Answer: Just run reset-all.exe]

Hey everyone. I seem to have messed up my monitor with CRU and the 144hz profile is not buggy even when I reset it. Is there any way I can find the default EDID to load into this monitor? Or could someone help with the 144hz profile? I think something is up with the back porch settings? The 144hz works somewhat but it buggs out if I enable the response time setting low,med,high, etc. It's on a gtx 1080 via DP. Thanks a ton. Hopefully someone can help.

Just simply run ToastyX reset-all.exe to reset everything back to before you downloaded ToastyX

I'm pretty sure I had to format my drive though after I had messed with the monitor last. Would it still reset?

I'm pretty sure I had to format my drive though after I had messed with the monitor last. I know I mess with the porch settings, all I recall. What is a good example on how to adjust them properly?

ToastyX only modifies the Windows registry (EDID overrides). It does not modify the monitor EDIDs directly.
If you reformatted already, then the ToastyX data is gone. If you are still having problems, then you have got other problems (warranty unrelated to ToastyX). Like fiddling settings in a monitor menus at the same time as ToastyX.
Reformatting is usually newbie overkill for this situation. The most common proper way to do it without reformatting is as follows:
Do these three steps:
1. Run ToastyX reset-all.exe to reset the windows registry. (This fixes Windows without reformat)
2. Run Factory Reset (or Memory Recall) in monitor menus. (This fixes monitor without reformat)
3. Full power cycles for everything (reboot your computer and monitor. For rebooting a monitor, unplug and replug it from power).
To learn more about the numbers in CRU -- make sure you understand the
Custom Resolution Glossary. And if you're doing Large Vertical Totals, read the
Quick Frame Transport thread.

Awesome, thank you! I reformatted for other reasons, thought I left custom profiles on the monitor. Good to know it does not save on the monitor. I think it just does not actually do proper 144hz. I managed to make a 141hz profile that seems to work great so far. Thanks again, keep up the awesome work!

One more question if you are still around. I for some reason can get higher overclocks if I turn off the High, Med, Low for the monitors latency mode. If I set it to bypass. Am I losing response time with bypass or turning it off? It feels about the same. Thanks again.

I haven't measured that specific model so I can't answer.
