How to fix Black screen Resolution problem.

I was approached with this problem 3 times within the past 2 days, so I figured I would put up a quick fix since it was so common.

The problem:
You attempt to change the resolution on your monitor.
You set it to the max ( > 1280 x 800 etc). Depending on the monitor.
Then your monitor goes black, when you restart its the same story.


No sweat, theres a simple fix for this.

Restart your comp.
Press F8 during start up (Which takes you into the bios).
Go to VGA and enable VGA mode.
Save and Exit Bios.
Your OS should now boot up.
Right click on your desktop which is now visible.
Now select a resolution around 1024 x 768.
Under the Display drop down menu select your installed monitor.
Apply and you good to Go.
