The resolution / refresh rate may be set too high. The monitor may be broken. The monitor data cable may have breaks. The graphics card may be damaged. Suggestions: Try booting to safe mode Check BIOS and make sure it is specifying the correct slot / interface type (AGP/PCI) for video card and turn off all video shadow caching or ghosting (exact terms may vary) Try plugging a different monitor into this video card Try plugging this monitor into a different computer or video card Try throwing monitor AND computer out 10th story window

The person asking the question doesn't indicate if this is a permanent condition or something that happens from time to time. If this error is seen only for brief periods and cures itself after a second or two, it could simply be the video card switching modes. Such a thing often happens at the start of a computer game or during the boot process. My monitor shows a similar message at these times and it is perfectly normal.

Folow the signal cable back to the computer. Make sure it's hooked up okay. If so then your vidio driver in the computer is bad. Good luck
