PC trouble
bunnylife:
Hi Meee,
I did some searching on the error itself and came up with this. I do not know if you have tried this yet.
Boot into Safe Mode. Do this by Rebooting and press F8 during the boot process and choose safe mode.
If this is the same error I am thinking about it has to do with the resolution settings. If you can get into safe mode try adjusting them. Resolution settings are under Display. Go to Control Panel ---> Display ---> Settings Tab there adjust your resolution. You can also troubleshoot from there.
I seen others with Dell coming up with this same error and solution. Hopefully, the others already gave you the answer you needed.

Marques, I had tried this earlier and it still kept going black on me. I have them set,as: Turn off the display: Never And Put the computer to sleep: Never When I go into the change the power advance settings and make a - out of the + in the sleep box and I check it again, it has gone right back to the + sign again. I'll give it some time to see if it goes black again. Thanks much for the suggestion.
Bunni, I have done your suggestion too, and it doesn't stop the problem. Thank you much though!
George, I might have to do as you say, but will wait and see what happens first, before I bother you. Thanks much me me me George! OH, I'm on dial up so can't have the computer on while on the phone George,soooo~~~~~~~. I do have a pre paid cell, if I have to be online.
If all fails I've already told Kathy {Ninny} to inform you all that I'm not dead, just can't come to the forum or anywhere else on the computer. lol ;D
Ok, George if I need you, it won't be over the weekend, I won't bother you then.

I'm sorry Meee, I thought you had stated you needed to turn your PC on, not monitor...sounds like you may be in need of another VGA cable (cable that runs from monitor to PC). I have extra, let me know what you and George find out.
Marques

Marques, thanks again and, yep I'll let you know, after the weekend what happened.
While I'm here again, everyone notice the pictures of bunni and Sandy k. they could be the same person,huh?
OK, time to go get hubby home from work.
meee ;)
meee:
Meee again,
One thing I forgot to mention is that awhile ago I had my computer in sleep mode and when I brought it back up,it revved up and wouldn't stop, so I shut it down and restarted. Could that have been when it went kooky?
Anyway, I still have been on long enough to see if it's fixed, as I had errands to run today.
I'll let ya know what happens.
