Well after doing some more research i came across a couple of threads where peeps were having the same problem but with a gateway monitor and using an ATI card. Some switched to a Nvidia card and it solved the problem and some still have the problem as far as i know.

One person said to put the system in standby mode....unplug the VGA cable(leaving the DVI cable connected)....unplug the monitor......wait about 10 min....turn on the PC.....plug the monitor in.....and it worked for them

I tried this and it worked for me too BUT i couldnt see post screen and i had to wait until the PC was up and running and turn the monitor off then on again then i saw my login screen.

So all i need to do is figure out how to get it so that i can see the post screen and not have to turn the monitor off and on again and i will be set.

Any ideas on this ?
