Start up problem?

[ekorazn]

I just got an old computer for $20 (PIII, 36gb scsi, etc.)

When I boot, the monitor will go into power save mode...we tried a different monitor, still no luck.

I have no clue what the problem is. We did replace the old battery, but that was about it. Any ideas?

At what point is your monitor going into power saving mode? Does it happen at bios splash, after the windows logo, or after you go to the desktop.
