This issue is aggrivating me. It only happens occationally, so I can't tie it to anything specifically.
The computer specs: Tyan s-2390 (latest bios), built by ATI Radeon 9200, Athlon 950 (currently at 1000), 256mb generic pc133.
Sometimes, the thing will SEEM to start normally.........normal post, Windows XP pro splash start screen.........and then when the Log-in screen is supposed to show up, I get no video. No error messages, no nothing. A blank screen. The monitor is on, the computer SEEMS to be at the log-in screen, but you cant tell, because the screen is blank.

I thought first I would crank back the o/c (it was stable at 1123 before) in case it was somehow messing things up, but it had no effect. I'm not sure where to go.
 
Bad monitor. Swapped it on my other rig, and saw the same issue transfer to the other computer.
