XP Blank Screen during Inspection setup

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

Back when I installed XP I had a problem in that thins went blank because my
LCD monitor was connected via the digital connector on my video card. I
switched it to the analog connector and the XP install video appeared. After
everyhting was installed I switched back to the digital connector and XP
used it this time. (My guess is XP doesn't know about digital during initial
install but is fine afterwards.)
