Vista Fail

Anybody ever heard of this one?

I had this happen once. If you have a VGA port on your monitor and graphics card, try connecting with a VGA cable. If that gets you an image, reconnecting with a DVI cable may work after Vista recognizes the monitor as there.

No luck. I only have DVI on the card.
