A few suggestions:

1. Are you sure the card is able to handle the resultion you're using 
*non-interlaced*?  If the card is switching to an interlaced mode, text 
will look bad.

2. Try adjusting the convergence and/or focus settings on the monitor. 
Usually they come pretty close from the factory, but maybe yours didn't.

3. Call tech support.  They might decide the monitor you got is a dud 
and send you a new one.
