Hi you do not say what version of windows you are using but I guess the refresh rate is incorrect.

I would first open your display properties, either through control panel or right click on your desktop.
Then select the settings tab, select high colour(16bit),you shouldn't bother with true colour.
Now select the advanced button, select adapter tab & choose "adapter default" for refresh rate.
Now select the performance tab & make sure "hardware acceleration" is set to full.
You shouldn't need to touch the other tabs, just reboot & see what happens.
If that didn't fix it you'll need toupdate your monitor driver. You have two choices go to the monitor manufacturers web site & find a updated drive that works with WinME & your video card or just let windows choose the driver.
To do this you need to right click on the "My Computericon on your desktop", then click on the "device manager tab".
Go to the one that says "Monitors" & expand the X then double click on the the one that opened which should be your monitors name, choose the drive tab & then the update driver buttonnear the bottom.
You you have the options to let windows choose your driver or direct yourself to the one you downloaded & have windows install that one it's up to you.

Check that your monitor is detected properly in the advanced section of display properties.
It is possible that the default Me driver is not optimized for your monitor.
See if you can download a driver from the monitor mfg.
The next step may be to increase the size of the AGP apperature in the BIOS settings.
I prefer to use a minimum of double the video ram, and try not to use more than 1/2 of available ram.
