Hi there,

Earlier today I was trying to adjust the screen resolution on my
monitor.  I did so and now I can't get anything on my monitor.  Can you

please tell me how to get it back to the origial bearing in mind that I

can't see the screen. When it boots up it is fine, then it just
dissapears.

Thanks in advance for your help,
BEN MARSHALL

Depending on the model of computer you're using (you did not specify),
the following reset procedure can help.

If the computer is on, turn it off. Turn on the computer, then hold down
4 keys - option-command-P-R - as soon as you hear the startup chime.
Keep holding down these keys until you hear the startup chime a couple
more times. The display resolution should now be reset to a range your
monitor can cope with.

To return your Mac's screen resolution to its default, you can either,
move the video card to another slot.

Or simply reset PRAM/NVRAM.
