Dear Carey,
I am having a problem with Windows XP. I had to replace the monitor, and now my PC won't boot up. It gets to the boot up screen, then just stops after the lights go across the XPlogo once. Thanks for any help you can give. I have already tried to restore my computer.
Thanks,
Greg
Sounds to me as if you have purchased an older monitor that is not compatible with your video card. My suggestion is to return the monitor and buy a different one.
