re: Moniter Shuts off after XP boot screen Saturday, November 25, 2006 at 8:53 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jeff (957 messages posted) Your friend must be using an older monitor that can't handle the higher screen resolutions. If you press the F8 key on boot up you can boot into VGA mode (or Safe Mode) and lower the resolution setting in Display Properties. Try setting it to 800 by 600.
