The problem is probably not with the monitor...more than likely it's the video card.

chrisward14 you definitely need more ram if you're running xp w/sp3, that all depends on your board.it doesn't mean your video card is broken..but if it can be upgraded without buying a whole new system,then i would say it's worth it.
You still haven't provided enough info. And I find it hard to believe a system with a 2.70GHz CPU would only have 192MB RAM. My guess is it has 256MB & 64MB is being used by the onboard video. Even so, 256MB is barely enough RAM to run XP so it's definitely not enough RAM for a decent gaming experience.
We need to know your specs but especially the video. Try going to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Information. Click the "+" next to Components, then click Display.
