I connected a (new to me) larger [24" to 27"] monitor to an existing, working computer. Original 24" hdmi connected, used a hdmi to to dvi adapter to connect the 27" 'new' monitor. (XP-64) Windows starts & then stops dead, black/blank screen. I had to 'force off' the power. Tried again, same-o same-o. Re-connected the original 24" monitor, powered on, now the same, Windows starts & stops dead, I cant get it to start in safe mode, dont know how.
I have removeable drive bays & trays, a different C:\ hdd (XP-32) works fine, that is, with original 24" monitor, boots right up, this computer as we speak(!)
Whats going on??
Suggestions welcome!

The 27" is an old HP monitor, it worked before ie, dvi & vga conns.
