| Guys, I couldn't download ubuntu because apparently there was a software missing. So I got a windows installation disc and tried installing windows into it because I thought it installs Microsoft windows vista but it's a Windows 7 disc. Anyway, I tried installing windows 7 but it doesn't work.. On the last installation section the monitor just says "Out of range" what does that mean Ocrim? Or anyone else that can help And now I cannot find my windows vista It's all a nightmare Veg,'can you help bro? |

| If your monitor says "Out of range" it means that your monitor cannot handle the resolution the processor wants it to have. Can't really think of a fix straightaway, have you got any newer monitors you can (temporarily) attach? |

| You need a device driver. I googled your problem. Turn your pc onto boot menu. Then Right mouse button click on an empty space on your desktop and go to properties. Then settings->advanced and you should be able to adjust the vertical frequency down to 60hz or 72hz. If not, then go to the monitor tab and load a generic monitor driver. You need drivers for your monitor. If you cant do that, boot your pc into safe mode and change your display properties. |

| Start computer and press F12. Then 3 options will appear. "Start in Boot menu, Normal mode, Safe mode with networking" Choose boot menu and from there do the rest |

| You are telling me there is no safe mode :O What pc do you have? I say get a windows 7 dvd, slam it in and re install windows. To do that put your dvd in. Press F2 and then clock CD-ROM boot priority. Then restart pc and it shud do it automatically. |
