Doesn't sound so much like a video problem as you are experiencing a trait of LCD monitors. LCD monitors have a "fade" time between pixel changes, usually measured along the order of 8-10 ms (100 ms in a second) This is paticularly visible if you move your mouse (or a white object) around over a black background. The only way to get rid of this is to watch what you buy (aim for as small of a "response time" as possible.) or abandon LCDs all together and stick to CRTs (that is what I use)
