Display-setting at start up is changed

HI,
having installed XP home edition on my PC, I have only 1 problem: at start up the display settings are always changed. I have to play around with the buttons to center the screen, height and width are also changed. When this is happening, I can also reboot, and after 1 or 2 times, it starts normal again.
My PC is a Packard Bell, and Monitor is a Fujitsi, all from 1998. Video Card is Voodoo 2000 PCI 3dfx.
Yes I know, not so young and fresh anymore, but they work. And XP looks and works prfect and much better then windows 98. Except for the display of course. Any tips ??

After reinstalling a new operating system you have to set the screen with the monitor buttons on the monitor.
