some further facts: Dimension 3000 System with 15" Flat Panel monitor It seems that a refresh rate setting within Windows XP Home has been changed to a setting unsuitable for the monitor to display. Each time the workstation is booted up the following message appears in white on a black...

i've managed to recreate the error on my dimension and the actual error is monitor generated (i.e. not a windows error). on my dell flat panel monitor (the same as theirs) i can enter a menu and reset to factory defaults while the error is on screen. on theirs they cannot get the menu to come...
