No display - Help Please!

I've assembled a PC from several of my old components (and some donated by friends) for a few poor kids in my neighburhood. Here are the specs:
P4 1.70Ghz on VIA Motherboard
40GB HDD
128 MB SDRAM
Windows XP

Everything went fine after installing XP, even downloaded all the required XP updates...because the total memory is very low and it was using 32 MB of shared memory I went to the BIOS and changed the shared Video RAM (for onboard graphics) to "None". When I rebooted after this I no longer get a display on my monitor.

There is nothing wrong with the monitor because it works with other computers.

How do I fix this problem? Please help.

lol increase the display ram...else how will it display....
btw nice job..keep it up!!!!

refresh the BIOS , use those jumpers or remove the battery for a few hours . .set the display memory(shared ) to minummum available in give set and not none. .

How can I increase the display ram when I cannot see anything on the screen?

Thanks mate

hey u need not remove it 4 a few hours, 3-4 mins max is enuf

read in toms place that it may take hours in some cases , but nehow u can try after 5 mins but remember dont put it(the battery) back immediately after u remove it.

for me removing it for about a minute works... also remove the mos battery and reset it using a jumper..

@caleb...
welcome,and if u reset then no need to remove batt!
