what kind of adapter?
Don't your monitor directly attached with vid card?

Reply to wa1

no the mother board does not have a basic monitor adapter slot it requires the beighe adapter so that the monitir can be attached.

now I'm suspecting your adapter...
Do u have another adapter? Try it and see if that makes changes...

Reply to wa1

no i dont have another adapter.... i took the computer to frys electronics they said the video card waas way out dated... so we updated the driver but when i used Adobe CS4 it gives me a error with the display driver ??so its disable the gpu enhancements?? we bought a new 24" LCD monitor still in test mode with this one.. but dont know why the driver is not working in CS4? any ideas
