Aloha to all..

Well i just got a Samsung Syncmaster 151P as a gift.
Its on a Radeon 64MBDDR VIVO using the Analog connection.
I've never used an LCD before...so i've got some questions:

I somehow cannot fix the colors of the monitor..THGC..hotmail..all my pics..everything looks different..i mean colourwise...how am i supposed to fix that??

When scrolling in web pages..i see this....well...dont know what to call it..but the letters seem to bleed...

well...the text is not really sharp

Are all these things common with LCDs..or i'm still not experienced in setting up the monitor..??Will getting a newer card with DVI help??
Resolution: 1024*748@60
 
yeah...that kind of fixes it....but:
will changing the card sharpen the text a little more...DVI i mean

And is 1024*748@60 ok??...what about 70 & 72??
 
DVI *may* sharpen it- it really depends on the display. Go ahead and try it w/ dvi, and see how it looks. I'd keep the refresh rate as set- seeing as how ur lcd doesn't actually refresh, it doesn't matter. Plus, weird things may start happening if u force it to 70+.
