Okay.. so scratching the surface of my head here. the problem is realated to a power management feature of Windows (or any OS for that matter).  Simply put it just doesn't know that your hardware supports turning off the power. I think the fix for this is to open up your display properties windows. Select the screen saver tab, then click on the Power button.  This will bring up another window.  And i belever there should be an AMP or some other sort of tab that has a check box you can select to enable automatic poweroff at shut down....\nHope this helps a bit.

I think every thing is OK.\nIf you see nothing on monitor than reinstall the AGP Card, RAMs  into the motherboard. \nCheck each connections into the motherboard and reinstall Windows. \nHope it will solve the problem other wise you will have to visit a technician.\nGood Luck!

Install a second Windows XP compatible video card and monitor.  Right click anywhere on the desktop where there isn't an icon and select properties. Click the settings tab.  Here you will find where to setup the second monitor.\nIt is important you use a Windows XP compatible video card. I did it using a video card out of an old computer.  My computer started having problems with random lockups.  I installed a new video card and everything now works great.

a video card that supports two monitors. NVIDIA or RADEON

A couple of ways:\n\nMake sure you're running Windows 98SE, 2000 or XP first.\n\n1.  Purchase a "dual-head" video card that can output video to both connections, then add a second video card (with one or two connectors).\n\n2.  Purchase three video cards with one output each.\n\n3.  Purchase a Matrox Pahrelia (I think that's how it's spelled).  The DVI connector can be split into two separate VGA connections for a total of three monitors on one card.\n\n4.  Purchase a single "dual-head" video card or two single-output video cards, and add a USB-VGA adapter.  Performance on the USB-VGA adapter is slower than standard video, but it's much easier to install, and can be taken on the road if needed.\n\nDepending upon your motherboard, you will either end up with a combination of PCI Express and/or PCI cards or an AGP card with PCI cards.  I would recommend purchasing cards with compatible chipsets (i.e. all NVidia or all ATI) to minimize the chance the drivers will conflict with each other.

try going to display properties -> screen saver -> power settings. there should be an ajustment for monitors.

2 ways to go here:\n\n1) First you need a dual view video card. A good example is Ati brands that support dual view. a link to one is: \n\nhttp://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=AA29470\n\nThen you need a dvi adapter unless one monitor you are using is dvi compatible. a link to the dvi adapter:\n\nhttp://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=AA14935\n\nIn the Ati control panel are the settings for dual view.\nSome NVIDIA cards also support the dual mode.\n\nIf both monitors are DVI and not VGA - the video card will be a good bit more expensive to support dual dvi.\n\n2) If both monitors are not needed at the same time you can also get a switch like the one listed below. It can be 2 monitors to 1 computer or 2 computers to one monitor\n\nhttp://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=1494095

1. The correct drivers are not being used\n2. try increasing the screen resulution (right click desktop, properties, display, screen resulution. Try using 1024 x 768)

Driver issue, there is not a correct driver for this and WinXP is forced to use default drivers which do not have the correct resolution. The solution is to use PowerStrip to force the monitor to recognize a correct resolution.\nSee the link below.

Your Monitor is set to vertical Spanning (The Graphics CArd thinks you are using two MOnitors) When The mouse is moved to the right it was suppose to appear on the second screen.\n\nUse the Graphics properties to turn of Vertical Spanning.

Umm, it's a Dell.  What more do you need to know?  Have you tried reloading Windows, though?

Unless you have some utility program installed for your video card that allows you to do it from the PC end, you can't.  Most monitors have a menu system that is used by pressing buttons on the monitor itself.  Check your monitor manual for details, every brand and model is a bit different so I can't be more specific.

Just turn the monitor on it's side. Just kidding. You probably hit a hot combo key that controls you graphic adapter. Try hittin your Ctrl key and then the up down arrow keys to get it back right. If that's not it hover your mouse over the systray icons in the bottom right of the screen. Well it may be on the top now. Find one that has to do with you graphics controller right click on it and open it. Browse around in there and find where you can rotate it back.\n\nIf all the above fails go to control panel and then Display and browse in the settings there to find where you can rotate it back.

Well,\nThe Question is very vague.\n\nI believe we donot require any card for this,if you have connected the two monitors to a Laptop or a PC.\n\n* Try pressing the buttons <ctrl>,<alt> and <F1> simultaneously.\n* Try doing this at least 3 to 4 times.\n* This helps to toggle between the two screens.\n\nhope this works.

I am not advertising here. I did a simple search of "share monitor between computers" at http://search.yahoo.com and found the following links that might be helpful.

It sounds like your computer is not really running.    Try getting into the BIOS setting, then plug the monitor into both ports. \n\nIf this does not work, then use the CLEAR CMOS jumper on the Motherboard.  I did have issues with my ASUS motherboard, and this was THE CURE. \n\nGood Luck
