In my experience using VGA can lead to washed out colours at higher resolutions. Also, some Windows XP graphics drivers do not support particular resolutions (e.g. my old laptop with some form of Intel intergrated graphics does not like widescreen resolutions unless I install a hacked driver). If you PC has an AGP or PCI-E slot graphics cards to fit these can be had fairly cheaply, you can also get ones which use a normal PCI slot but they are rarer and hence more pricey. Chris can probably help you out here if you want to do this.
