Strangely, after the installation I was unable to select the resolution setting 1280x1024@60Hz which was the max supported by my monitor. I was only able to use 1280x1024@70Hz which made the screen all blurry, flickering and it had uncorrect screen position and things like that. I rolled back drivers, but still I want to use the new driver. Is it possible that you tell me how to fix this, or at least refer me to a site & forum where I can ask this kind of question?

...What the hell?
We're talking about a GFX setting here, not the best position you should sit in front of your TV to get just the right feeling of awe in Bad Boys 2. Most resolutions on such monitors are at 1280 x 1024 - its a common resolution!
1280 x 1024 is default for most 17" monitors. Get a clue.
Again, 1280 x 1024 is a common resolution for a PC monitor.
