Yes. There I can change refresh rate, but when I'm returning to the Settings 
control tab (properties->settings) and trying to change screen resolution, it 
selects incorrect refresh rate. Say, if I selected 1280x1024, it sets 60 hertz, 
although my monitor can only work in interlaced (47 hertz) mode in this 
resolution. It's because w2k detected my monitor as Default monitor and doesn't 
allow to change it. Is there any tool which allows to do this?

There is no Monitor in the devices list :(
