What are the proper Refresh Rates?

My rates at @ factory defaults of 60Hz. Could this be one of the
reasons every website I visit seem to draw the screen from upper to
lower position. It's like a 56K connection and I have broadband.

My monitor is a 19" Proview 998/998A/998N(1239224727) a.k.a "Xflat"

What is a good frequency refresh rate for 1024X768??

Even with low Refresh Rates you won't see the screen updating. The only time
you notice a poor Update Rate is when you are using the Standard VGA driver
instead of the Nvidia driver which exploits the 2d acceleration function of
the GPU.

It's an LCD monitor. The refresh rates don't apply like they do for CRT
monitors.

No this one is a CRT monitor I am asking about.

My mistake. In that case, the general recommendation I've heard is above
75Hz. Higher is better, so long as your video card and monitor can handle
it. I run my Dell P991 19" monitor at 85Hz @ 1280x1024.

At 60Hz, you may notice some flickering, but I don't think it will change
what you're describing.

Yea, like John said. You don't have your video drivers installed
correctly, or not installed at all. Then set it too 85hz in the video
properties after.

60hz is too low, you want to b using 85hz or better with a CRT, tft's are
fine

No.

Use the lowest refresh rate supported by the video card and monitor
that does not produce any perceptible flicker for you. This will
allow the video card to run a bit cooler. There's no advantage to
refresh rates that are higher than you can perceive, but the threshold
for perception of flicker varies from one individual to another.

I keep my refresh rate at 60 Hz and that seems to be plenty for me in
all circumstances.

Sure they do, although a refresh rate that is faster than the rate at
which the LCD elements can be changed won't be perceptible.

SORRY forgot to mention this is a CRT monitor, about 3 years old.
Sometimes sells under the name XFLAT.

thanks,
