Tomay 0 Posted October 23, 2003 I'm setting up an old comp for my friend. Mobo is an EPOX EP-58MVP3C-M VIA MVP3 chipset with an amd 300 3Dnow 128mb ram 40GB maxtor HDD The problem is that after installing the drivers for my rage128pro and rebooting the screen just goes blank when the desktop should appear. I'm running windows 2000 Latest ati drivers latest via 4in1 latest bios It just goes blank (the monitor stays on) and I have to reset the machine. I also tried an ati rage128 but the same thing happens. Anyone know a cure for this? Share this post Link to post
jmmijo 1 Posted October 24, 2003 Could it be the default Resolution/Refresh rates don't like the monitor ?!? I usually boot back into safe mode and uninstall the display driver, then reboot into normal mode and have it redetect the display once more, be sure that it doesn't set some weird refresh rate that the monitor can't handle or display properly.

Tomay 0 Posted October 26, 2003 I doubt that and I don't have a way to check. I think it's a chipset/graphics issue. Share this post Link to post
