Re: frequency problem
is this on LCD or CRt? LCD only properly supports 60 Hz. Most people will go to 75 or 85 hz on CRT's to reduce eye strain. If the fan is broken, repair it or get a new card

Re: frequency problem
have you used the degauss function of the screen? you really should fix/replace the card, and the GPU may be damaged.

Re: frequency problem
Oh, I had a similar problem with my work computer. It always happens when someone near me uses a pencil sharpener. My CRT monitor is usually set to 85, but I have to bump it down to 60 hertz to get it to stop the "shaking." My fix is shutting off the monitor for a long period of time, for example overnight. It's usually fine the next day. And you should probably check to see if you're near any devices giving off those pesky unwanted electronic signals, like pencil sharpeners, shredder machines, etc. Hope this helps.

Re: frequency problem
GPU = graphics processing unit = video card
