Can't change/view my monitor properties

[salomao 0]

My problems seem not to have an end. I still can't play any games (screen goes black, shakes and clicks - as if finding the right resolution or refresh rate - and returns me to windows) even after tryind diferent drivers configurations and using refresh rate fix program.

 

But I believe my problem discribed above has something to see with my next (weird) problem.

 

If I left win xp use it's own Nvidia drivers, my motitor (Sony E200) is correctly shown and I can change it's properties.

However, if I install different drivers (nvidia 21.81 detonator, for exemple) then there's no way I can change or view my monitor properties. Windows "says" it is a default monitor and the "properties" tab is not allowed!!!

 

Even "refresh rate fix" program doesn't detect my monitor

 

What can I do?

 

Thank you for your help

This was not a download XP version

I have Win xp professional CD

 

And there's no way you can change your monitor in "device manager"... you can only change de video adapter (graphics card) ;(
