Driver or Setting?
Re-Imaged a Dell Demension 8100 Series PC with ME, which it originally came
with. After installing drivers for different devices I proceeded with the monitors drivers. After changing resolution to 1024x768 and rebooting, I get thru Windows ME booting up to the Network Password Box, which I was going to get rid of later on. I hit ESC or Cancel on the box and the monitor goes into like a hibernation state, and a message right in the middle of the all black screen shows "Monitor is working. Change PC setting." It will happen everytime I restart and bypass the password box. I go into safe mode and then get into the desktop properties, under Advanced. then Monitor to change the Hardware Acceleration meter to None. Then I would restart and get back the 16-Bit resolution(800x600). I've also checked and changed the monitor's power settings and unchecked its Enable Hibernation box and nothing. Basically, I can't use anything other than the standard VGA drivers. Installing others just gets me to that black screen. So my question, is it a driver issue or just some setting I'm overlooking. |
