so i have had an oldschool tube monitor for a long time on my pc and my brother has given me his LCD monitor. for a long time ive had an extra blurry picture with my tube monitor and i was thinking that it was the monitor itself until i switched to the LCD and noticed that the blurriness is still there. so im thinking that theres something wrong with the video card. I have a NIVIDIA GeForce2 MX/MX 400 video card.

is there any way i can fix this? possibly a program?

It could be the resolution you're running, plus that video card sounds like something made in the 90's.

Try changing your screen resolution to the native resolution of the monitor(should be the highest one, usually) or to any one that looks decent to you. Your video card can easily hinder your monitor from running it's native resolution.

nope, doesent seem to work dude. it still has the blur.

If you're running it in its native resolution and it's still blurry, then it's either bad VGA cable or card with particularly bad analog output (I doesn't have DVI out, does it?). I'd try to swap the cable, then card for something other, preferably with DVI out (if your LCD monitor can use it of course).

hmmm, the cable thing doesent seem to have worked

My ever loving geek says-

1: Update graphics drivers and DirectX

2: Buy a new GFX card.

Maybe you just need a pair of glasses?

I usually find that if I scrape the butter off the screen, I can see a little sharper.

I discovered frequent LOLing at the screen severely degrades image quality (lots of faux bad pixels).
