Damn key trigger happy fingers hit send to quick.
I have to ask, aside from trying updated drivers are you selecting 60Hz with the
1280x1024 resolution? If yes:
Are you selecting those settings in Display Properties or the monitor controls?
Either way whichever one, try the other to see if it helps.
Are the graphics integrated onboard or do you have a PCI or AGP card installed?
If it's a card installed open the box up and make sure that it is seated properly in
its slot.
Check the cable from the monitor to the machine for any problems and make sure it's
firmly connected.
Also download/install updated graphics drivers per the manufacturers instructions
from their support site.

Thank you very much, I have a 17" fujitsu flat screen monitor, my text is not
sharp as it used to be with my last pc, I have tried to change the screen
resolution to 1280 x 1024. when I click ok I get a black screen show with a
grey information box telling me frequency out of range 46Hz - 86Hz please
change to 1280 x 1024 60Hz. but its just not letting me have that setting for
some reason
