60 Hz is very low, Bob.
I can very well imagine your problems; my previous screen didn't support any
higher refresh rates. In the end I developed a chronic headache.
Usually, the graphics card in the PC support higher refresh rates than the
screen. Try to set it as high as the screen will allow. Personally, I prefer
85 Hz or higher, but most people at work are happy with 75 Hz or higher.

With CRT screens, that is. If you have a TFT screen, 60 Hz is reasonable.
But I don't think you would have been troubled by that on a TFT...:-)

Best,
Jostein
