The native resolution for the x193w monitor is 1440x900. The monitor will only allow certain resolutions. You may need to create a custom resolution using the nvidia control panel.
Goto:

create custom resolution
horizontal pixels : 1440 vertical lines 900
refresh I belive is either 75 or 60. Whichever looks better
scan type: progressive
your screen has some ruptured component inside,,,it happens because of high voltage or voltage fluctuation in your power supply,,,,you have to replace it...
Do you have a spare computer to hook up to the monitor to see if the monitor's settings are off vertically?
Can you adjust the vertical size of the image of the monitor?
Are the letters squashed down vertically?
If the letters are squashed down vertically, did the setting for pixel size of the screen get adjusted to another size accidentally in the control panel under display settings?
I once had that problem, I think you need to make sure that the power supply cable is fitted well and your monitor receives enough power. if its shares the power cable with your CPU try and separate it then restart your computer.
Starting on page 15 are the directions for the monitor controls. Page 17 indicates a "RESET" feture to Clear the Old-Statuses of "Auto-Configuration". There are quite a number of setting for this monitor.
To my knowledge, it is compatible and certainly would work with XP. Since this monitor has both DVI and VGA inputs make is compatible for most video cards or even a built-in video of the PC. If for some reason the Acer X193W would not work with your Windows XP PC, possible reasons are:
Screen Resolution and/or Screen refresh Rate of the PC's Display Properties too high, try lowering them down;
hardware fault either on the monitor or video card;
incorrect/missing drivers of the video card;
it is being hooked as a secondary monitor and the dual/twin view is not activated.
Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.
