After the Window Loads.. my screen just goes to pitch black and starts flicking.. I was told to go to safe mode and change the refresh rate and resolution to the lowest.. but safe mode wouldnt let me change rates so I went to Safe Mode VGA, but it was already at the lowest rate, 640.. and 60. I tried restarting but it still wont load. I tried changing the numbers and pressed okay in safemode vga but then my monitor just goes pitch black again and looses signal. Any suggestions? thanks.

edit: i tired it with my regular crt monitor also but it does the same thing.
