Default DVI to VGA conversion woes, again

I've bee fighting this problem for 6 years. Back in the day, I had a Radeon 9200se with one VGA port and one DVI port. I used a cheap DVI adapter to convert back to VGA for my second CRT monitor. It rendered a very blurry, darkened image, with a strange "ghosting" effect. I never could find a solution to the problem.

Several years later, I bought a cheap GeForce 6200 card for Windows 7 compatibility. This time, the same adapter converted DVI to VGA very clearly, and the issue was solved!

Since then, I've gone through several cards with similar setups, and they have all worked great, until now.

I have obtained a 9200 GSO, and it has dual DVI. Since I'm on an extreme budget, I'm still rocking two CRT monitors. I was shocked when the image came out blurry, just like on my old 9200se. I ordered two new DVI adapters to see if that would solve the problem, and it didn't.

I've scoured Google. I can't find anything. I need a video expert.
