| Boot the computer into "safe mode" and you can change the system configurations. |

| You can't enter Windows even with the safe mode? The safe mode will ignore your monitor setting, if it fails to boot, then the problem may not be the incorrect monitor setting. |

|
|
| bios starts fine. safe mode wont, but when i launch any of the options i get a bunch of driver file names on my screen listing like crazy, except last known or normal, as i said produces a black screen i know my monitor is receiving a signal its just to low of a Hz setting this all started after installing a view-sonic driver then changing the colors and a restart.... which probably wasn't needed i just want to know what's wrong with the damn thing... |
