Open up "My Documents", and open the "Command and Conquer Generals Data"
folder.  The file you want to modift is "Options.ini".

Actually, I suspect that the refresh rate is the problem - some how, the
monitor doesn't seem to like the refresh rate provided by the video card
and therefore needs to be overidden or filtered.  You might want to
consider reinstalling the monitor drivers (or replace them with a profile
that can match your monitor), or find a way to override the refresh rate.

"DXDiag" provides support to override this under the "More Help" tab.
Generally, this isn't recommended unless you have to do so, as an incorrect
value will cause the screen to blank out.  (It can also fry older moniters
as well.)
