2692 1999-08-15 02:05:00 Hi there
I can't see my screen. (It is working have hooked it up to my lap top to
send this.)
I was adjusting the 'screen area' in settings in display properties in
control panel.
When I pressed apply the screen flashed and disappeared only to not so
far appear again.
Now when I boot up the screen goes through the boot up shows windows 98
briefly flashes a bit and then disappears.
I can get into set up but that is all.
So how to I change the settings for the screen (that it obviously can't cope with)to back to how they were
without being able to see anything ?

regards

Ken Maclaren

You could also try changing your video adaptor to the standard VGA driver (right click on desktop, select: properties, settings advanced, adaptor, change, next, display a list of all drivers..., show all hardware, standard display types). After rebooting, reinstall the correct drivers.
