| 101332 | 2002-11-25 06:28:00 | When I start my computer a splash screen appears briefly with the message-27K/61HZ Frequency out of range. It’s a 1.7ghz celeron, 256 MB ram upgrade box I recently purchased & installed Win 98SE on. What does this mean? And if it’s a problem how do I fix it? Any advice would be appreciated. |

| 101333 | 2002-11-25 06:40:00 | The message is not from your PC, its actually your monitor telling you that the frequency (scan rate or refresh rate) that your graphics card is initialising at is out of the range that your monitor can display. When windows initialises the Graphics card with the drivers and settings that you use (and that your monitor can display) then the message goes away. What can you do about it? Possibly nothing. Try updating your video drivers but don't hope for much, as its the mode of your video card before it sees the drivers that is the problem I am guessing. As its telling you the rate, can you tell us what the accepted rates are for your monitor? Or tell us what monitor you have got? |

| 101335 | 2002-11-25 07:52:00 | 30-92kHz(h) 56-160kHz (v) so the horizontal scan at kick-off is too low. (27 kHZ) Means resolution is probably 640 x 480 at start |
