Default [Resolved] Help again....

Hi, me and my friend now have problems, but mine is minor.

okay.....

When i start up my computer it does everything normal, once it's finished loading ( Picture ) it will go blank for a few seconds, then the monitor will just turn off, the computer will still be running. I've left it running for a good 30 minutes, to see if it had any hope :P But nothing.

I'm actually writing this in Safe Mode :| kinda annoying as i don't have all the XP Features and no sound

Thanks in advance

Hi Empty, it could be video card or chipset drivers.

Try reinstalling your chipset first, then video card.

Hello,

I've just reinstalled my video drivers, nothing yet. I did a system restore, for some strange reason that worked. So it's all cool now, thanks for your help.
