PC Startup failure

[Jelle_Snijder]

I have a problem 
When I start my PC, it just runs smoothly.. Untill I get to the login screen. Then it says it doesnt have a signal and the monitor just shuts down. Can anyone help me with it?  :help:

If you are using a laptop, try pressing FN + F4.

If that does not work, remove the graphics card, turn the PC on, turn it off.

Then try re-inserting the graphics card and try again.

I have just thought of somthing, is it possible that your resolution was changed prior to restarting?

Check the connection cables. If you have some spares use one of them, if the spare works then it is obviously the cable. If a new cable doesn't help then try to plug the moniter on another computer to see it has the same problemo.

But he said he sees the Windows XP start up screen, his resolution has obviously changed.

Try booting into safe mode and see if it works, then change the resolution from there

Well.. I didn't change my resolution but I'll change it in save mode.

Will try that, also.. I will post if it worked/didn't work.

Uh, are you using a different monitor to the one you were using when your PC was working fine? I had the same problem once and I realised it was just the TV I was connecting my PC to was incompatible with the resolution I was using.

Haha no.. It's my original Monitor.
