Ok, yesterday, i bought the GeForce XF 5600 card from MSI. I put it in, it was working.
I decided today that maybe i should do a clean install of the drivers. Perhaps that was not such a good idea. Because now, all I get is a black screen. The pc itself is running fine, i can hear icq in the back ground, ect. But, i cannot see anything. Just a black screen.
I have tried unplugging my monitor, restarting, and then re-plugging it back in, but i still get nothing. I have tried going back to my previous graphics card, but again, nothing.
All i did was install the drivers from the cd-rom. After they were done, it asked me to restart, so i did. Now, all i get is the black screen. I cannot check any settings, because i cannot see anything on the screen.
Does anyone have ANY idea what i need to do to get my screen to work properly.
Btw, when i first turn my pc on, I see the windows XP logo, but then, after that, it goes black, as the pc loads.
ANY HELP please!!!
Thanks
Chris
