A plea for help from any of you computer-boy-wizards who are familiar with Windows 98.

I just re-formatted this computer, and it doesn't appear that all the pixels are showing up in photos, etc. i.e., colors are screwed up or missing, text is hard to read, background is a series of crosshatching and patterns rather than solid toning.
I've diddled with every setting and adjuctment I can find to no avail.
I'm about this close ---><--- to going totally "one of my turns" and tossing this friggin' monitor through a window.

Any help would be appreciated -- I'm a computer illiterate.
