Posted by: Leo at January 27, 2006 5:11 PMI changed the resolution of my monitor and the screen went blank. I booted in safe mode but all of the options are not available, the only options were already set to a min. Where can I go from here. I recenty bought this machine used and it was working great until I tried to change the resolution.
Posted by: wilson at February 4, 2006 12:17 PMMy screen turns black after the windows logo. I followed all your steps, but it still does not work.
Posted by: cody at February 9, 2006 5:15 AMI am having the same problem exact problem. I followed the Safe Mode steps but it does not work. Any help would be great. Thank you.
Posted by: Joe at February 22, 2006 10:17 PMI got it now. I rebooted and hit F8. But instead of selecting Safe Mode, I selected Enable VGA Mode. I was then able to change my resoluiton properties and the next time I booted up normally, my screen was fine with those settings.

Looks like there's several people still having the same problem after following your advice.
I'm another.
Any ideas on where to go from here if you still get the blank screen?
I have the same problem, and folowed the advice. The safe mode allows nothing but to boot in win XP only...pressing F8 gets you to select VGA, and this brings you to select Win XP only, and no configuration tools at all. Safe mode at each corner but that's about it. BDOD still there. On boot up, HDD is read and screen shows windows logo for about 3 seconds then goes black and the HDD seek stops. Have FDISKed and reformatted and tried different HDD, video card, etc, to no avail. Is the BIOS dead?
