I have a 4 year old computer wHich has only the on board graphics card.
I have been given a new monitor, when I plug it in,the start up process
appears on screen, Then when it starts to boot up the screen goes black
and
it says on the screen (out of range) I think this means the graphics card
is
out of range. do the newer flat screen monitors require a minimum size
graphics card, I think the on board card I have is 8mb. any help would be
greatly appreciated.


Just boot to safe mode and re-adjust your video resolution
