Not Optimum Mode 1280x1024 60Hz
Hi
I have the following problem, after a recent windows update. I boot the pc and without problem: - the monitor turn on - it displays the bios, - it displays the WindowsXP Boot Screen - and finally my desktop. In other words: I can work. But, if I restart the pc, when it boot again: - the monitor turn on, - the monitor displays the bios infos - the monitor displays the WindowsXP Boot Screen but after that it displays only the message "Not Optimum Mode 1280x1024 60Hz" In other words: I don't see anything If I try to restart the pc again, when it boot: - the monitor turn on, - the monitor displays displays only the message "Not Optimum Mode 1280x1024 60Hz" In other words: I don't see anything I have updated both the driver of monitor and the driver of graphic card, but no resolution. Any ideas? Windows XP Home Edition SP1 Nvidia Geforce 6600 LE Samsung SyncMaster 710N |

set the screen resolution to 1280c1024, which is the setting
your LCD works best at. The warning is advisory only. You can just press enter and it should boot right up.

When you reboot do you do a cold (power off) or Warm (reset button) boot?

Your Samsung monitor is what is producing the message.
At the bottom edge of your display there should be a row of buttons, one of which will initiate 'auto adjustment' on the monitor settings, this should bring your display back at least temporarily. You should also check that the screen resolution setting you have in Windows matches the native resolution of your Samsung display, it will contintue to blank the screen if you do not set it to native resolution. jaft wrote in news:1191930960.150710.309930 @k79g2000hse.googlegroups.com: Hi I have the following problem, after a recent windows update.
