but, I have this little annoyance whenever I restart my computer the Video Card does not prompt the monitor to turn on.Its great if I go to windows and shutdown and start again no problems only when I restart after install of software or choose restart in the menu do I have this problem? Is their a fix or what am I doing wrong?

I've run into something similar occaisionally with my 3D Prophet III in an A7M266. It only happens rarely and seems to occur when switching from the DOS/bootup screens into full windows mode (not on restart but on any start). Not sure why, I always figured it was a quirk of it running a DVI flat panel on my system. Maybe not?
