| 813516 | 2009-09-24 23:03:00 | Turn the tv on, it should show up there. Then change it back to the monitor, in the nvidia control panel / whatever it is | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 813517 | 2009-09-24 23:16:00 | thanx Speedy...but pc not hooked up to tv..so now what?? | shione83 (7126) | ||
| 813518 | 2009-09-24 23:17:00 | Well, you'll have to hook it up (somehow). Since you changed it to the TV. Thats probably the only way you're going to fix it. Or boot into safe mode. And see if you can change it back to the monitor that way | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 813519 | 2009-09-24 23:19:00 | and how do i boot into safe mode if i cant see anything please? had to switch pc off at wall to shut it down | shione83 (7126) | ||
| 813520 | 2009-09-24 23:22:00 | Well you'll have to find a connection to connect to the TV then. If you cant see anything | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 813521 | 2009-09-25 01:13:00 | can u point me in the direction for instructions to do this please? looks like its my only option | shione83 (7126) | ||
| 813522 | 2009-09-25 01:38:00 | Look on the back of the videocard. You'll have to get a connection / svideo cable exactly the same.. And RCA cables at the other end (hopefully your TV has video in / out plugs on it). Or else you cant do anything | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 813523 | 2009-09-25 01:41:00 | When you boot the computer do you get white writing on a black screen to start with? Also do you have a green power light on the monitor? | Sweep (90) | ||
| 813524 | 2009-09-25 02:07:00 | thanx guys ..got it sorted.... managed to get into safe mode using xp disk.... took a few tries but got it finally.... no more fiddling with settings for me for a while lol | shione83 (7126) | ||
