dougkinzinger Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Hmm. The only thing I can think of is to (A) try it on another PC and see if it works there, (B) try another monitor on YOUR pc here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmin Posted November 7, 2003 Author Share Posted November 7, 2003 I have 2 monitors : 1. AOC - this is working now .. 2. ADI ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougkinzinger Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 So, just the ADI doesn't work? I would say that it's probably dead or dying if the AOC works on the PC where the ADI does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmin Posted November 7, 2003 Author Share Posted November 7, 2003 Yes , only AOC works normal .. but must be remember : ADI works in BIOS & post & longin .. after that nothing :no: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 Sounds like a refresh rate problem to me - I dunno how to fix it if you can't even boot into safe mode, all I can suggest, is a reformat, and see what happens !!! I've found that ADI montiors (Specially my ADI Microscan I600) are very particular to the refresh rate you choose :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuxi Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 Just a thought... Do you have two video cards? On my computer, the old card displays up to the point of the Windows startup, then the other card takes over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmin Posted November 8, 2003 Author Share Posted November 8, 2003 Updated Information I've tried also to setup some brightness & contrast and surprise : worked but not perfect .. The image is so dark and poor quality , as 8 bit even is set to 32 - if I increase rez. the image get's darker - the only rez. that seems to be " near ' normal ( but isn't ) it's 800x600 .. - I've unninstaled from pc the AOC drivers and installed the latest from ADi Any ideeas about these ? the contrast & brightness is set to the highest level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
