Can't Install XP?

[Khaled Sultan]

I have an AMD 1800+XP system running 256 MB DDRAM (333) on an ASUS A7V333
motherboard.

I'm currently running win 2k and wanted to go to XP.

I installed XP from scratch (as opposed to going through the upgrade
process). Installation went fine/smooth untill the very end (last reboot).

I get the Admin login page, but the display is garbbled! The screen is
sqeezed in the top left portion of the monitor and contains a lot of
horizontal black lines.

I'm suspecting it's my video card (AGP Sapphaire Radeon 64MB).

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Have you yet tried to use your monitors adjustments for size, positioning,
etc.? Different OS, different drivers, so they may be using different
settings, especially for refresh rate. Boot into Safe Mode and see if the
screen is viewable.
