Try booting into Safe Mode and see if it provides a picture there.  If it 
does, you may need to go into the Display Property area (in XP, right click 
Desktop & select Properties) and change the selected monitor.  I suspect 
Windows is trying to send a signal meant for a CRT to the new LCD, but that 
doesn't kick in until Windows boots up.

Peace,
