I have a pretty old Mitac 17" LCD.

It has always been fine until I bought my new system.

At first, everything was fine with my new system but then I started getting problems.

Now, when it boots, I get "OUT OF TIMING" straight away. If I press del to get to bios, I can see the bios but it doesn't fill the screen properly.

I can then see the table type thing on boot up but then cannot see the Windows XP boot sequence. The welcome screen shows up fine.

Everything is fine in Windows itself.

I have tried pressing the auto button but it doesn't overcome the problem.

I cannot test if it's a graphics card specific problem as I'm on PCI-E now and my old rig is in bits.

Any ideas? Perhaps a bios upgrade?

Cheers for any help.
