out of frequency............

SOS..........


hey geeks help me out.... all was fine till two months back... long before when i went on a long long leave ... leaving my pc alone for two months... but now when i started it... it started and now switches off all of a sudden without any warning..... not even the BSOD..... n restarts with the monitor giving the first msg as out of frequency n then the same prob again...

i tried resetting the monitor resolution to 800x600 everywhere... i.e. the desktop resolution and the monitor settings... but no joy... can anyone guess what could be the prob.....

P IV 1.7GHz
256 MB RAM 100 MHz
XP SP2 operating system
LG monitor 15'

Re-install/update your display adapters/drivers and try changing the frequency to a lower value.

but now when i started it... it started and now switches off all of a sudden without any warning.....

what switches off?? the system or only the monitor??

no its not the monitor...... the system reboots completely and the monitor shows the "out of frequecy" when the system boots up again..
