danbraniff Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Hi, not sure where exactly to post this but I figured this was gonna be a nice spot. I am using a 32" Acer TV as my monitor and for some reason I can not see teh post or the splash screen, it says no source untill it changes it resolutions to 1280x768. Is there a way I can change the startup resolution? Or anything I can do to make it display the post?

tazevedo317 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 well ik my motherboards bios has an option to pick to choose the PCIe graphics card as the first one to be displayed or the intergrated. check if yours does. that might be why its not showing the post.

danbraniff Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 yeah, I thought the same thing, but it is set to it (well AGP) I think its just going to have to be this way.. The TV probably doesnt support the bootup resolution.... which is OK cause that means its time to buy a new tv maybe.
