strange VGA cable problem
I set up an old lying around P4 3.0 Ghz,integrated graphics,hooked up two gigs of RAM,installed a 32 bit 7 copy,checked on my monitor,it worked smooth,nothing spectacular,it worked.Thought to give it as a present to my girlfriend (still on xp) hooked it up,on HER almost identical monitor(19")and i cant get any decent resolution,nothing above 1200xwhatever,stretched screen,blurry letters,a total failure.Tried almost everything,clear type,refresh rate,custom size letters and fonts,tried four different vga cables.Graphics work(1360x...) ONLY with MY cable.Its really a simple,not heavily shielded one,is that what i should look up for?Anything special to watch out for?
