The video board is an Albatron Ti4600 and the drivers are XP certified.

Nobody with the same troubles?

I've tried with the utility EndItAll with no results

utility.

I guess some aren't diligent enough to detect this, but once a system gets
powerful enough, the effect will get reduced until it really becomes hard to
see, or even unnoticeable.

If you've made sure the usual settings are optimised both under 98 and XP,
you can perhaps improve the situation by eliminating as many unneeded
services as possible.

you'll find information as to which process are vital for the system, or for
your particular environment, and which aren't. Take all the advice with a
grain of salt, however, and only disable processes you feel comfortable to
disable, disable only one at a time, and remember well what you did, to be
able to restore the system to the previous state if a problem arises.

However, the rights-checking and other low-level tasks in 2k/xp alone (and
the fact that Directx has to access all hardware in a different, less direct
way than under 9x) create an overhead in 2k/XP which doesn't exist in 9x,
and as they say, you can't have the pudding and eat it all.

Joachim,
finally I've reinstalled the latest drivers and now the 1600x1200 resolution
is there again, however with a max refresh rate of 72 Hz. Then I've chooosen

even a better situation in comparison to the previous 1600x1200 without
antialising.

However I'm planning an HW upgrade to get more FPS (CPU and RAM).

Tnanks to all for the helping!
