Blank Screen At BIOS With DVI Connection
I just spent too much time to admit trying to solve a problem with
blank/black screens whenever I went into BIOS with my ASUS P4P800 motherboard, ATI RADEON 9600XT card, and Samsung DVI-connected flat panel monitor. The machine worked fine otherwise, once Windows XP started, but I had no access to BIOS. I ultimately came up with two solutions that worked. 1.) Turn ON plug and play OS support in BIOS (using another video card). 2.) Switch to an NVIDIA based card. It turns out there is an inherent conflict with some video cards and some digital flat panel monitors. The issues gets resolved once Windows XP starts, but not during POST. I hope this saves someone some time. |
