blank screen after windows loading bar - vista

Hi.

 

I just installed Vista on my computer, i got bored of XP and i can't afford to buy Win7 straight away anyway.

 

 

 

So, here's the [bleep]ing problem... I'm so god damn sick of the everlasting problem.

 

The screen works fine up until the Vista loading bar. After it finishes, the screen goes "no signal"... Yay.

 

Worked without a problem in XP and worked before on Vista.

 

The screen is some 19" Packard Bell which works fine. I connected a 2nd monitor to see if it was working (17") and it works without a problem.

 

I have the latest driver (ATI), it's clearly not a driver fault since it works with another screen. There's no problem with the dvi port nor the dvi cable as it works up until log-in time.

 

The 19" works if i uninstall the driver or boot up in safe-mode (goes to 1280x1080 in both cases).

 

So, please tell me, what's this screen [bleep]ing about? I'm so fed up with this crap.

 

Also, the 17" screen, the mouse can dissapears into the right quite a bit as if it thinks it has more space to work on than it has.

 

Thanks.

Ok, so i tried the vga cable with the 19" screen and it works.

 

I mean, i won't die if i have to use analog.

 

Now the question is, why doesn't it work with the dvi cable when i log in?

DVI-D.

 

I've used this screen (with the cable) before with Vista, so i know it works.

 

There must be some setting in Vista that is wrong... I just can't figure out what.

 

When i used dual monitors yesterday to try and work out what caused it, i went into CCC... It saw my screen and recognised it, but still no picture.

Yes, it happend after i installed the driver. In safe-mode or if i uninstall the driver it works fine.

 

Currently got the driver installed (latest) (and i've reinstalled it too) and the analog cable plugged in, and it works, but i'd really prefer having the dvi cable...

Tried old driver, didn't change anything.

 

I tried the dvi cable with the 17" screen and it works without a problem... But it refuses my 19".

 

Suggestions...?

Perhaps a stupid bump, but whatever.

 

I downloaded the new driver released today (9.7), and the dvi connection is working now.

 

Just thought i'd "let ya'll know".
