Jackie,
I had that happen when I turned the computer on first and after the computer
booted up, turned on the computer. If there is a *next* time, put the
monitor on first and then the computer.
I've had that happen a few time to me when I was away and the computer
crashed, so now when I go, I shut the computers and monitors off. It came
up shrunken as 640 x 480 and 16 color!!! I had to reinstall the drivers.
I see that you made it back..... but did you have to drag the rain back with
you??? :-)
Regards,
Gene
