The PC uses an Intel 82865G graphics controller. The problem is that the controller shows avlbl modes as 1920x1200 (75 Hz) but monitor supports only 60 Hz. What to do? My friend uses the same monitor on the same graphics controller but on an IBM machine without any problem.

My monitor is a 24 inch LCD flat panel display and its manual says that its optimal resolution is 1920x1200 (60 Hz)

As long as the resolution is set correctly, refresh rates don't matter with LCD monitors. I don't bother with setting refresh rates on LCDs because you can't see any difference. Most of them default to 60Hz anyway. It just doesn't matter. Now a CRT would be another story. If it's really bothering you, you can right click on the Desktop, go to Properties and click the Advanced tab, now go to the Monitor tab and uncheck the box that says Hide Modes this Monitor Cannot Display. Click Apply. You can set the refresh rate independent of the resolution. But, as I have been saying refresh rate doesn't amount to a hill of beans on a LCD monitor.

Your Graphics controller can handle that resolution but not your monitor. Not all monitors are the same. Nobody I knows uses that high a resolution and 60Hz refresh rate causes flicker that can be hard on your eyes. 1024 by 768 or 1280 by 1024 is the most you need!

set the resolution to the correct size (1920x1200) and you should be fine.
sometimes the drivers for a graphics card work on the D-SUB connector but not the DVI connector for some resolutions - you can try switching to a cable for the other connector if you're still having problems.
