After you have tried those things, could you follow the instructions from this site in safe mode and report back to us. I googled a wild guess to find out exactly how to do this again so try it and just let us know if things are good or not good based on the troubleshooting of this guide.
How to Check the Video Driver
I really hope one of these shows us something...
Also just for the heck of it, try this as well
Click on Programs --> Setting --> Control Panel
Choose the "Power Options"
Select Change power plan settings > change advanced power settings > Set hard disk setting to 0 | Disable everything under "Sleep" | Set PCI Express setting to OFF | Display to Never
Just another wild guess but we will see.
For the first one, I have tried tweaking the monitor setting and it ended up as displaying "no source signal" instead of going into sleep mode which i think it is the problem with on board video is failing to send signal to the monitor during boot up which is the purpose of drivers being there. and it is not working. for the second one, both suggestions didn't work. Third one, I tried to apply to WIndows 7 since it is on windows 2000 and i found out that Device/video0 is set to RY\Machine\System\Controlset001\Services\VgaSave\Device0 and I don't know what that means hehehehehe. I have tried to last one, but no luck there still. Omg this is tiring
can you right click on computer > hit properties > go to device manager > drop down display adapters as well as monitors and take a snapshot? it could be that one driver is conflicting with another...
This snapshot is in safemode since I can't boot up into normal mode with the video driver that is required to use my onboard video. And in the safe mode, it doesn't show monitor driver so i took the 2nd one.
Since i had to go into normal mode, I deleted the intel Hd graphics driver and installed the default video driver.
Haha I should have thought that would happen. okay. try installing the driver, when it asks you to reboot, then try taking a snap shot before rebooting. it should be there.
If you can, you should go get a dvi cable as well. two good reasons. 1. im still guessing that the vga output is stopping when the drivers are loaded, 2. you will have a much clearer picture. It could also be that the driver is putting out the wrong signal and your monitor isnt capable of displaying it so it goes to no signal mode. This happened to my tv with vga. So it would be a better troubleshooting mechanism to have a dvi cable for this.
Here are the two scenarios.
yea I alrdy had thought about DVI-D to VGA cable and ordered it online turns out it was single link when mine was for double link. So it didn't turn out so good. I just ordered DVI-D to DVI-d Double link cable so well see if it helps.
