I just got my 9500 pro and I'm running an 18" LCD and a 21" CRT. In dual monitor mode, the CRT flickers a lot. Even when I change the refresh rate all the way to 120 Hz it's still annoyingly annoying to the eye. Especially when I look at my LCD and the CRT is in the corner of my eye. What's the deal here? I tried out each and every frequency for the CRT, but they all seem the same.

Ah, it seems like my monitor is only getting 60Hz. Anything I can do to change that?

Go to Display Properties> Settings, and you'll have two monitors showing. Click on the monitor image that corresponds to your CRT monitor (If you're not sure which is your CRT, click the "Identify" button and a big number 1 or 2 will appear on your monitors. After clicking on the monitor, then click on "Advanced", and set the monitor the same way you'd set your primary monitor.
