Hi

I have just set up my new system just the way I wanted
it... dual boot XP pro and RH Linux.... I was having
trouble trying to update the driver for the TFT monitor
(SHARP LL-T15A4).. I couldnt get into Display->Settings-
advanced->monitors->properties because the button
was "greyed out"... I think I inadvertently unisntalled
the default monitor....AAARGH!!! After giving up and
getting on with some work I rebooted the machine only
find that Windows wont display....

I know Windows is running in the background ( I can hear
it log on + msn messenger auto-logs me in as well) but
the screen just goes blank!!!

Please can someone help me!!! I have so much work on
this machine and I cant afford to lose it!!!

Regards



P.S. I have tried logging in to Windows using "safe-mode"
but it just reboots itself....

hi!i also use xp (ntfs) and rh7.3.does your display work
when you're in linux?if it does,try using recovery console
by using your xp cd to repair your installation.
