    Hi

    I read older FAQ and tried all nothing works:

    Please HELP, I too accidently change the display graphics settings (Core2Duo E4300 2GB/250GB & 7200TC 512MB SLI XBlade) i remember setting somthing to 100% and from system to auto I feel really silly!, and now I find that computer gets as far as the WIndows XP Logo on start up and then blank screen hanging occurs, even though windows has definately loaded up and is running in the background. The other big problem is that I have set up 3 users 1)Admin with password 2)guest (limited access rights) no password 3) Admin2 with password!
    I want to try to revert them back how you originally described, but It wont boot in safe mode now either! when i click on Boot in safe mode after F8, it just comes up with a list of about 20 different random directories , and then nothing else happens!:
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\windows\system32\drivers\ACPI.sys
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\windows\system32\drivers\WMILIB.sys
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\windows\system32\drivers\pci.sys
    Please help

    VGA Mode does nothing either

    I just tried another monitor Samsung SM931BW thinking it would work 1400 to 900 resolution however no avail.

    Can you please help?

    Many thanks in advance.

    Boot, press F8, select "last good" from boot menu.

    Try sustem restore.
    Or try safe mode again and give it several minutes after spitting out the list of generic driver loadings.
