Monitor is black!

[Tyrone_03]

I have a basic dell comp I got from a friend, he had a large monitor and i am assuming a different driver for that monitor. when we got the tower from him he gave us the original monitor. the icons and displays kept changing...even when we would reset them through the display settings. well...in my mad infant computer skills some how I disabled the video driver now we get a black screen and thats it. even in safe mode or any other mode in the f-8 screen. HELP!

You tried VGA mode?

Can you use another monitor to install the driver?

Download the driver of the monitor. You can find it in the start menu and properties of that specific hardware(monitor) if not, try updating/downloading the driver for your GPU..... use VGA first since it is the most basic connections and double check your system for viruses....
