i have an old computer, and i switch computers to print out an old baking thing for my dad in his ms money that was on the old comp, when i switched back the monitor didnt work and it said something about the new monitor driver being installed or something like that. the screen stayed there and then windows loaded cause i heard the windows startup sound, but the screen was still there and thats all i can see. anyone know whats wrong or what i can do to fix it? i cant really think of anything since i cant see anything.

Reboot your computer and push f8, windows will show options, choose load in safe mode and when computer loads in safemode, go to control.exe and reload driver for monitor from original disk, also you can use left mouse and click on my computer icon and hit refresh from inside options to refresh drivers and then reboot and you should be good to go.

I do computer repair in my mainstream biz, and have one girl that I have fixed her pc not once, but twice by doing that!

I think she must just like me coming over there. no one can be that dense
