Default display settings

i'm running windows 98se. upon starting up windows after the load screen, my
monitor turns black and stays that way until i restart it. it will then
restart in safe mode a display box with 'desktop' at the top pops us telling
me that "problem could be caused by your network or hardware settings. make
sure these settings are correct in Control Panel and then try starting
windows again." when windows is loaded i am unable to change any settings in
control panel under my display. however after restarting, windows loads in
normal mode, and then another display box pops up telling me that my settings
need to be changed and the Control Panel pops up allowing me to change my
display settings. although when i try to change my display and restart my
computer the same thing happens each time no matter which setting i put it on
it always goes back to 16 colors 640x480 pixels. display: super VGA 800x600
on diamond viper v770/ viper v770 ultra. any help would be greatly
appreciated, thanks!
