You probably tried it but just in case...

Did you set the screen refresh rate?
It should be above 75Hz for a CRT and sometimes, if
you don't install the device specific drivers, the
Windows generic ones won't allow reaching such rate.

I've always heard that a low rate can be annoying for
you eyes.

Hope this helps.
