Possibly a silly question, but I assume you can locate the monitor's
brightness and contrast controls and ensure they are correctly adjusted?

Note: if you end up with a bright spot in the centre of your screen, turn
the brightness *down* or you could damage the inner phosphor coating and
end up with a permanent mark on the tube!

If as you say the spot killer is going OFF after a couple of seconds then
that indicates that the monitor is getting a good signal.

You might also want to look at the relevant monitor FAQs on this site:

http://www.ionpool.net/

It's an excellent resource for all kinds of technical information.
