Two things to check. First - make sure your 'display properties settings'
are within the range of your monitor. Right click on desktop, select
properties, select settings. May need to adjust both resolution and refresh
rate (advanced settings).  Then, if needed, make sure your adapter card
display setting is correct as to the type of monitor you are using (vga,
lcd, tv, single, mirror, multiple monitor, etc.). Adapter cards have
slightly different interfaces and methods of getting there. Just ran into
this same problem going from crt to lcd monitor and needed to do both of the
above.
