Well when I try to use my monitor to me second pc, it loads Windows then suddenly it goes "Sleepin Mode" or something just shutting down. I move my mouse, click on keyboard - nothing. I hear on my speekers that windows has loaded, but can't see it. Btw It loads on safe mode.

I use windows XP, btw this monitor is from my main computer and there it's working fine.


Any ideas?
 
Hmm let me get this straight:
After booting windows your monitor shuts off. It works on safe mode and another computer.

Looks like a problem with the driver. I suggest using system restore to restore your computer to a date before this was happening. (in safe mode)

Start | Programs | Accessories | System Tools | System Restore
 
LOL HOW CAN YOU USE SYSTEM RESTORE WHEN YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING

Are you sure the hardware isn't defective? (Inside the computer)

Try the hardware on a third computer, then you will be able to see who really is at fault here.

he said it loads in safe mode. He said it already worked on another computer.
 
Don't I have to have some changes made to have system restore available?
1. It has to be enabled.
2. It has to have already made a restore point in the past for it to go back to.

That sounds like either incompatible/faulty monitor or video card drivers. Load it in safe mode and from there update your monitor and video card drivers using the Window Device Manager (right click My Computer -> Properties -> Hardware -> Device Manager).

After you see this also post the brand/model of both your video card and monitor, I'd be interested in knowing. If you'd like to explain more or need further help you can add my MSN from my profile.
