Question about Acer APFV MT (APFVUP5152) PC Desktop
Check whether there is any magnetic material near to the monitor(Speakers, Adaptor, UPS etc). Try again after removing it.

Any monitor flickers at 60 hertz. The usual reason for being unable to use faster refresh frequencies is that the correct video card driver and/or monitor driver are not installed. Another possibility is that the resolution is set too high. Assuming Windows XP, right click on the background, choose "properties", settings tab, advanced button. Check to make sure your video card is named - the monitor is not as important but would certainly be helpful. If not, did out the CD's that came with them or download drivers from the manufacturer's website. On the other possibility, on the adapter tab, there ought to be a "list all modes" button so you can choose resolution and refresh rate at the same time. Your LCD monitor will be fussy about the resolution, so you may need several tries to get something that looks good and doesn't flicker.

I've checked the driver, and it is the correct one...
Then i tried your second solution, but the only mode it allows (which isn't rediculously large or fussy is 1024 x 768 32 bit 60 hertz.
Also, it was strange because at some stage the standard resolution options available changed form allowing only 3 diffrent modes, to all modes, and previously i was able to change the refresh rate to 75 (which solved the flicker) but now there is no option until the advanced tab, where it tells me it isn't compatable.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks again for your time.
