I've encountered a problem in recent days concerning either my graphics card or monitor, which one? Im not sure. It all started a yesterday while playing a game of Counter Strike : Source , I had alt-tabbed ingame and decided to alt-tab back into the game and as i proceeded to do this my computer locked up ... couldn't move mouse or anything. So I proceeded to restart my computer. This is where everything went wrong. My monitor was not showing any image, only a black screen with the Analog/Digital box flashing. So I tried a few things to see what would resolve this problem ... Removed all cords, plugged them in agian ect. Unplugged graphics card then plugged back in agian. Restarted PC numerous times. Reinstalling drivers I'm using a DVI to VGA cable connecting my graphics card to my monitor,
I've also tried plugging another monitor into my graphics card, with no result.Onboard graphics work fine. I don't have another graphics card to test it on ... In my computers devices it says the video driver is not installed correctly or something along those lines? Does anybody have a step by step guide on installing drivers?.....

I added a second monitor to the GeForce 7100 GS using a DVI-VGA adapter and for the life of me cannot get it to display anything, the monitor is just in sleep mode. I've got the latest driver, Windows is up to date, checked the cables, tried another adapter, tried everything but, still nothing. The second monitor shows up in the device manager and in the Nvidia control panel. It's enabled and set to extend desktops. It seems the system knows it's there because I can move the mouse over, but cannot see anything. The power light on the second monitor just flashes. I've swapped monitors over, to make sure there's not a problem with the display and it's fine. When I do that, the main monitor is then plugged in to the DVI adapter and then that one goes to sleep. Just seems whichever monitor is plugged in to the DVI-VGA adapter just doesn't want to work........

i have only one monitor, and somehow it is being treat as though its the secondary monitor in a dual monitor set up. i cannot view my start menu, or view any programs being opened, as when i try to open them, they presumeably open on the phantom primary monitor. even when i try to open display settings, i cannot see the box. i am able to move my mouse to the left border of the screen and move it off into oblivion, and occasionally drag random folders and short cuts over to view.

Right now I am running a vista machine with 2 monitors one widescreen and my old one. I keep all my sidebar gadgets to the other monitor so I can monitor temps and system diagnostics. Today, my sidebar is on my main monitor and no mater what I do it won't go back to monitor-2, no mater what the setting is in the sidebar properties. What is going on here?

I know this isn't a Graphics Card related thing, but it is the closest I can get.
At the moment I have a Hyundai ImageQuest Q17, and I think it's way to small, that's why I will be doing a student job in the Summer Vacation, what screen do you guys recommend? Here are a few things it should have.
- Good brand, a brand you can trust.
- Widescreen
- 19' or up
- NO reflecting screen
- DVI
- Compatible with Vista
What do you guys recommend?

Recently I have bought a gaming PC, and after a few hours of such
gaming, my monitor goes to sleep, the PC is still running and I can
still be playing my game. just without a monitor!
The only way to get the monitor to work is to restart the PC.
Any ideas what the problem could be? At first I suspected an
overheating Graphics card, but could it be other things? could it be a
RAM problem? what could cause this? Has anyone else had this problem?
I would like to make it very clear that it is not a problem with Vista,
or its power settings, as the computer remains runnings. It is also very
unlikely to be the monitor as I bought it new yesterday.

Been having a monitor issue lately ever since I installed SP2 for Vista 64bit. Sometimes when I turn the PC on the monitor goes into immeadiate sleepode (the power button blinks). I don;t even see the BIOS boot screen....nothing...just black.
I sometimes can hear windows loading but nothing is on the screen. At other times I don't hear Windows loading at all.
I'm thinking it's a BIOS problem or maybe even a MB problem.
I would appreciate some help on this. I've never had this problem before SP2
Weirdness continues....managed to get some sort of display happening only to be told my windows system files are corrupted and that I need to do a repair...which I am doing now after several attempts to get the BIOS to boot from the DVD drive
Well I bit the bullet and restarted the PC...dissapointed to say that it's didn;t work.
It seems like the BIOS isn;t loding any basic video nor is windows.
Sometimes it just doesn;t even seem to be booting into BIOS at all.

I just bought a new Samsung LCD monitor with native resolution of 1920x1080 pixels that provides nice sharp display on my older XP desktop, but a pretty mediocre one as an external monitor on my newer HP notebook. Both systems use nVidia graphics cards, though not identical models. The XP uses GeForce4 MX 4000 card and the Vista notebook came
with GeForce Go 6150 (UMA) chip. I wonder if Vista may have something to do with the poorer display or the different nVidia chip alone. I assumed the Go 6150 was a more capable chip and if anything, I expected even a better performance from it. In both cases the display res is set to 1920x1080 at 60 Hz, but the text display from the notebook looks pretty lousy.

I have a Viewsonic 28" LCD monitor (model vx2835wm) which is pretty good, but not the greatest quality to say the least. It is 1080p supported too.
However, I need something of better quality. My question is the monitor *must* have 1900x1080 resolution specifically to be 1080p supported correct, even if it offers higher resolution options?
Example:
Dell 27" UltraSharp Widescreen Flat Panel Monitor
Higher resolutions, 1920x1200 too, but not 1920x1080 specifically. Would this be a bad idea for Blu-Ray movies (my Sony laptop has a built in Blu Ray player)?

My monitor is too bright on the eyes, since my monitor is not hooked up analog i don't have the option to lower brightness directly on panel settings. Sometime ago (not sure how i did it, can't remember) i had changed the internet webpages background to grey(easier on the eyes).

I got a small problem which is to extend my desktop into second monitor. I used to do that in windows XP it was so simple, how ever it seems I got hard time doing it on Vista even thought I never did it on vista before. I went to Control Panel > Personalization > Display settings, it shows only 1 monitor and saying "(Multiple Monitors) on NVIDIA..." I'm using Vista-64Bit. And on SLI mode and plugged the 2 monitors on the same graphic card. I tried Ultramon 3.0.3 but there still a problem, Ultramon detects only one monitor when I'm trying to use the second. I've been trying to do it in Nvidia software. How ever I ended up switching between monitors only. I tried to search around and ask around for more than 4 hours, And still no good.

I am trying to calibrate my home laptop LCD monitor using an X-Rite Eye One Display 2 unit for digital photography purposes. After calibration, the X-Rite unit creates a custom monitor profile and sets it as default. But the laptop reverts to the original monitor settings once the computer is rebooted. I can't get the corrected monitor profile to display even though the display settings show that profile as the default. I've tried "adding" the profile in advanced display settings and re-setting as the default but that has no effect. Only a new calibration will change the monitor to the desired settings and that only lasts until the next power down. During the boot process, I can see the monitor colors change three times (original>calibrated>back to original). My laptop is an HP Pavillion DV2000 using Vista Home Premium and with Intel GMA X3100 display adapter. BTW, my XP desktop was calibrated successfully without problems.

My hard drive w/ Win XP decided to just up and die. It won't even turn off or send a signal to a monitor. I went out and bought a new computer w/ Vista. My problem is, how do I recover what was on the old hard drive if I can't see anything on a monitor? Will I have to pay a recovery service or is it gone forever?

I bought a new PC two days ago along with Gforce 9600 GSO 384 mb DDR3 and I am running windows Vista. My problem is that when vista ask for permission to open any program my monitor blinks for a nano second( monitor turns black) otherwise the system is performing good. Is it the problem with the old CRT monitor or some kind of driver problem.

My monitor will blink randomly, and usually come right back on, but sometimes it will be off for 10 secs or more.
Hardware:
I'm not sure about the motherboard, I'm not at home. But it has PCIe, DDR3, Socket 775
550W PSU (came with the case, not sure what exactly.)
Intel Q6600 Quad Core
Corsair 6GB DDR3 RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9800GTX hooked up via HDMI to a 32" HDTV.
Now, the only thing that has changed is the mobo and ram. I haven't updated the BIOS on the mobo yet, but I suspect that may be the issue. I have the latest drivers and updates for vista.
Anyone had problems with a blinking screen before? I've been told it may be that the video card is overheating... that's not it, because this happens under no load at all.
I've also heard it could be the PSU, but I had no problems like this for 4 months before I replaced the MOBO and RAM.

We are using Netgear Router in most offices in Northern California offices. Most are Net gear router modele MR814 & WGR614, 4 wired ports and 1 wireless port; and WG311 wireless adapters. Is there anyway to monitor the router activity? Anyway to see which port (wired and wireless) is active and network traffic. Also, want to make sure nobody outside our approved users is using the wireless ports? We know about the router log in the router set up page (from all ports, all mixed), howing what URL is contacted and time stamped.

The monitor just displays the "no signal" message. when the PC is turned off. I have looked long and hard for an answer, Anyone else have an issue with this? I have a 3 year old 19 in Sony Flat screen. I just reinstalled the OS from the 64 bit to the 32 bit and had the same problem with both. I've Goggled this and had no luck finding an answer.

It seems for maybe the past couple of weeks it seems that sometimes the screen saver doesn't kick in.
When the time for the monitor just goes right to sleep it does. W/o the screensaver kicking in, or after it runs maybe a minute.
The odd thing is after I go and check the power settings, which all look fine, it works as it should. I have tried different screen savers as well as changes the timers. I don't know if this is from 1 numerous amt of MS updates or is there maybe a corrupt file or something.

Dell Inspiron/lg flat screen monitor with Vista Home 64 bit After using the computer for the morning, the monitor decides to shut off. The computer is still on and I can use the off on button to get it back on but for a very short period of time only, There is no sound, no flicker or anything else that would signal to one that this is going to occur. When I do the on off button the screen states something about analog input and lets me finish up a task if it is just a few minutes. I have checked drivers and everything Ican hink of for settings that might have become reset accidently. I have the pd version of AVG and it scans daily. There have been no viruses detected. I keep things cleaned everyday.

I went to the Driver Download page at Dell for my monitor and it has a driver listed for download for XP but none for Vista. I guess that means they have no driver for Vista so it won't work, right? So there's NO WAY I can make the thing work with Vista 64bit right? I need to know before I unpack the new computer because if my monitor is yet another thing that won't work with Vista (I already have a list of software that won't) then I may take the dang thing back and buy a new XP computer if I can find one somewhere.
I have spent the past 2 days looking at lists of software and hardware that may or may not work with Vista Premium, and it's going to cost me hundreds of dollars to replace all this stuff... and if I have to get a new monitor, well there's another $200-300 or so. Is it really worth it to add Vista or should I take this computer back before I take it out of the box and buy a new computer with XP and a lot of RAM so everything I have will keep working?

After spending a while on google and forum searches I can't find anyone talking about what is happening to me. I just recently purchased a Gateway computer and I am having a problem with monitor's dimming. (HD3200 onboard graphis, dual e-machines 22" lcd monitors). When I first got the machine I noticed that it would randomly decide to dim one of my monitors. It was pretty infrequent at first, and if I pressed ctrl+alt+delete and opened up the Task Manager it would often fix the problem and brighten the problem monitor up.
Well, I updated the video card drivers. This seemed to fix the problem, I hadn't noticed either one dim for quite some time. The problem took a turn for the worse though. Now, every time I boot it up, it automatically dims monitor #1 (hooked up via VGA, #2 is on DVI-D). I can't get it to undim the monitor except for randomly when it boots up occasionally it won't be dimmed. I thought maybe it was some type of power saving mode, but after turning all power saving settings that I know of, off, I have started to think that isn't the problem.....

I'm going to upgrade from a 22" Samsung 226BW to a 24" monitor. I've been looking at the Samsung SM 2493HM and the T240.
The 2493HM has got pretty good reviews but I can't seem to find any on the T240.
Do people think it's a better panel or is it just the rose red surround that's attracting attention?
