monitor switches on/off when starting any game!

Recommended Posts

This is very anoying. There must be a way to prevent win2k/xp from turning the monitor off then back on when changing vid modes for games. I dont think its good for my monitor. Is there perhaps a registry option somewhere that can change this, or is it the display drivers? Thanks for any help.

 

 

by the way, i have a Voodoo 3 3000 16mb AGP vid card w/ a Viewsonic PF790 Monitor.

Perhaps you would care to share with us exactly how you fixed it so that others who have the same problem can gain from your infinite wisdom?

All I did was change my res from 1280 x 1024 to 1024 x 768 and I also increased the color from 16bit to 32bit. One or both of these changes fixed it. It nolonger switches on and off when I run any game.
