So nice that my server's controlstrip gives all the wrong monitorsettings. Most of them are a high resolution @ 120 Hz.
I have 2 21 inch screens hooked up on my server. I mainly use one.
I noticed that my monitorsetting was set to 1280x960 @ 75 Hz. So I thought, lets increase that to 1280x960@ 85 Hz.
It worked fine, initially, but after a reboot my screen went black.
rebooted with techtool 3.0.4 so I could maybe set the screen resolution to 640x480 @60Hz (and then after restart increase it to normal settings)Well, that did not work (work = give visual).
Zapping PRAM did not work either.
Reinstalling the
monitorextensions from OS9.2 installcd did not work. Deleting the
monitorpreferences did not work.
B]Adding the xtra monitor[/B] did not work (hoping the extra screen was in visual mode so i could try it from there)
So, I reinstalled the whole machine with OS9.2.2 again.
All this fuss took me 2 1/2 hours of inactivity. I really don't hope I will encounter this problem again.
What is the proper way of resetting monitorresolutions?
