Lately I have been having a problem. From time to time when I attempt to start up my SonicView desktop PC, everything sounds like WinXP starts up fine EXCEPT that the monitor is 100% blank from the moment I hit the on/off switch.
I have had highly limited success getting it to turn on normally -- i.e., monitor works -- after starting computer, vigorously hitting a combo of F2, F8 and F12 -- ostensibly trying to boot the computer in Safe Mode or something -- then hard powering off and restarting. This solution is not acceptible.
Anyone know if this is likely a monitor issue, a pc hardware issue or xp config issue? Anyone know how to help me?
THANKS,
Jay
