Hi All,
   This is for the computer ppl. Windows XP won't load if there is a driver 
mismatch between the monitor and the software. Booting in using the F8 key 
allows one to bypass this by booting in "VGA mode." Windows XP kills the video 
if 
it detects a mismatch. This is why you get the blank screen effect. Same 
theory applies if you move the hard drive to another machine. You must then 
repair 
the installation with an XP setup disk to accomplish this task. The drivers 
for the software would need to be updated to get the software to work. HTH......
