I think your monitor would not be able to cope with those ranges.
The HP Ultra VGA 17 seems to be limited to 30-64 Khz / 50-90 Hz.
The 15 inch is probably the same.  The effect you're seeing is
probably the result of the Horiz. frequency being way too high.

If reducing those ranges doesn't help, you could try it without
the 3dfx accelerator card.
