Sounds more like the monitor, rather than the video card.  Do you have another monitor you can test?

  Got a mobile phone, too near the monitor?  (I seem to recall you have a preference for CRT monitors.)

I've seen it where a desk fan next to a monitor will make the picture shake as well.

none of those things.

And i don't have a preference for crt... it what we could afford when we bought the pc's.
We've always said if we have money we'll upgrade them.

  Upgrade to TFT?  Surely 'downgrade' is a better word?

I dunno about that.  While it's limited in resolution, I much prefer my LCD monitor to the CRT secondary.  For one thing, it's much brighter.
