M990 monitor problems

I have a user that owns a Dimension with a 19" M990 color monitor. He says that when he drags an icon, it leaves a copy of the icon as it is drug along the screen. Almost like it isn't refreshing or refresh rate is wrong. He says it isn't and the connection is tight. Everything I have suggested has not worked. Should I have him remove the monitor in Device manager and let Windows 98 detect it ? Any suggestions would help. Also...how do you reset these monitors back to factory defaults ?

 

Thank you

    • Ideal refreash rate for the M990 is 75Hz
    • Removing the monitor from device manager & having windows re-detect it won't make much of a difference, upgrading the video driver however would.

    Thanks...I will  check refresh rate and see if there is an updated driver for monitor.

    This is somewhat a know problem and has nothing to do with the monitor. Does this person have a program loaded on there computer called; "Dell Media Experience"? If so, remove it from the control panel - add and remove programs.
