I set my monitor to display a resolution that it does not support and now I am unable to reset it since the screen is black.*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/actions1.gif
so when XP starts, the monitor goes offline.
help please.....*gigasmilies.googlepages.com/2.gif

LG 15" CRT monitor.
NVIDIA GeForce 7300 LE.
Windows XP.

boot in safe mode

press f8

u can try by setting the resolution to lowest.........and increase it by 1..........and set ur graphics driver to display only supported resolution then choose d suitable 1.......this will solve ur problem i think..............
