It's gotten to the point i cant go on the comp for an hour without eyes hurting...... this is my monitor:
Monitor Properties
Monitor Name Plug and Play Monitor [NoDB]
Monitor ID
Manufacture Date Week 33 / 2000
Serial Number
Max. Visible Display Size 32 cm x 24 cm (15.7")
Picture Aspect Ratio 4:3
Horizontal Frequency 30 - 70 kHz
Vertical Frequency 50 - 130 Hz
Gamma 2.20

Do you think it could support 85HZ? I want a higher refresh rate so i dont get all these headaches... i currently have it running @ 60


Edit: 85 not 75
 
goto ur monitor settings and uncheck the "hide modes that this monitor cannot display" use the best on ur eyes can handle
 
Ummm,

Can you just tell us what Brand it is and the model number?

Also need to know what video card you have if you want the best settings.
 
Don't laugh and cry "What kind of god would allow this?!?!" now....

No I meant your monitor brand and type.

I'd try 75Hz first and see if that helps. Any monitor made in the last 6-8 years should support 1024x768 at 75Hz.
 
Buy an LCD. They don't have "refresh" rates like CRT's, they have response times. And since the screen doesn't actually "Refresh" unless the picture changes, it's a lot easier on the eyes. No burn-in.
