Green ghosting on my desktop?

I just upgraded my PC to a 8800GTS and c2d6300, from a ATI X800\P4 2800. I have used my Dell 2407 on both machines.

On my new PC I notice a bright green lag\ghosting on any window border when I move it around the screen. I also get a wierd slow refresh rate on the window when it's moving, it's like a slight blurring.

I don't see this on my old system, and games are fine on both, is this a monitor or a GPU issue?

I'm getting this in Battlefield 2 on distant grey objects

I had this, it turned out that when I installed the new gfx card drivers, windows decided to set the refresh rate at 75Hz for the tft. I thought my tft was knackered until I had a "I wonder" moment

If its not at 60Hz, set it at that

I'm forcing the resolution to 1920x1200 in BF2 using the short cut target line but there isn't a command that I'm aware of to force the refresh rate as well, so it could be defaulting to 75Hz but I can't check at the moment.
