    Unhappy Monitor problem

    hey guys, i was on my brothers pc last night, and messed with the monitor refresh settings. He had at 60hz and complained of headaches, so i uped it to 100hz, but then the monitor flashed a warning sign, "Warning, out of range" "Are these settings correct?" But i can't select yes or no. It doesn't take input from the keyboard, and none of the buttons on the monitor let me select yes or no. The monitor is a hitachi cm615.
    Now, when the computer is rebooted and put in win2kpro, this warning sign appears, and i can't get around it. I know its because of the refresh settings i chose. I can get the computer booted up in safe mode, but thats it. So i was thinking about removing the monitor drivers, thinking that might work. Making the computer use default drivers.
    Well, any help is greatly appreciated.
    Btw - the computer is a dual boot with winme on the c drive, and win2kpro on the d drive, so getting into the files is not a problem.
    - Peter.

    Boot into Safe mode... You should change the resolution there. It will ask for a reboot..

    Or you can delete the video card or monitor and it will default to 640x480

    The monitor is listed in Device Manager

    You can delete it there

    Let us know if it works
