Did you mean "out of range". Try reloading video drivers. If that doesn't work, perhaps screen cannot use that resolution.

The input signal out of range on screen persists in spite of all monitor and PC video settings being correct.

Have you tried uninstalling the graphics driver entirely and then rebooting? Could be a corrupted driver.

Out of Range problem with LED 19 inch viewsonic monitor

What is the source for the signal to the monitor? First, if the source is a computer, was the computer previously connected to a CRT monitor? If this was the case, you may have the wrong refresh rate as well as the wrong resolution being sent to the video port. Reconnect the computer to the old monitor (if possible) and reset the refresh rate to 60 Hz.

Next connect the monitor to the computer with both devices off. Then turn on the monitor and set it to the correct input (if needed). Then turn on the computer. Most versions of Windows should determine the best resolution for the monitor. (Some Unix versions and recent versions of the Mac OS will also automatically find the correct resolution.) If you are still getting the out of range message, you need to change the video resolution with a different monitor connected and then retry. Always turn on the monitor first.

For additional support, please add a comment with the specific monitor and source that you have. In a few cases, the video card/on-board video may not be able to output the correct resolution or lose the correct setting when the monitor or computer "sleep".

I hope this helps.

(I've seen most "out of range" messages with several TVs that were connected to computers and turned on and set to the computer input after the computer booted up.)

I have a desktop PC with HP v72 monitor and a GeForce FX 5200 video card installed. I uninstalled Windows XP and installed Ubuntu Server 11.04. The problem is that after the initial boot screen my monitor...

why run server, , sure you actually want a server.. sure.
Linux, run the newest Ubuntu on new pc
or older on older pc, ive no idea at all what PC you have.
v72 old CRT , glass tube monitor a RELIC in today world.
why post OS questions lacking what HP computer you have of 1000s.
XP gone great idea, for sure....
OK F8 is Microsoft , for get them it not MS now, not at ALL.
in the Linux world its failing to find the correct minimum or
best resolution to match your old monitor
the monitor is year 2000.
the best resolution is 1024 x 768

you are using new linux, and it does not use that old old CRT
weak as a cat resolution,
you can use and older linux, or newer monitor
or change the resolution
using
if seen and done this 100s of time, endless,
btw your OLD CRT monitor does not use proper PnP plug and play
data comms.. its too old, why mess with CRTs in 2017?
walmart sells a $45 LCD , use that? and avoid darkages resolutions.


the way to do this is to run in command line mode
and change the config file, called, xorg.conf

https://techblissonline.com/ubuntu-804-set-default-resolution-1024-768-virtual-pc-2007/


there are other ways,
recompile the kernal to default to this reso? relic
or there is hot key at boot, read the manual on ubuntu
and change to lowest poor resolution
then run setups with a working desktop.

ask on a Ubuntu forum, it can vary by year, OS made and version
and what what desktop running of the many.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Resetting_an_out-of-range_resolution



keep in mind
your CRT is not supported now.
you must force it.

one more for V12, dropped the startup manager, wow....
best is to ask only for your version and choices at install time.
grub , KDE? what?

Error message Library not registered

I got the message "Line 25: Library not registered" after uninstalling QuickBooks Pro 2009 and trying to run my old version of QB Pro 2006.

(I had installed 2009 version to upgrade my QB2006 Pro version but got into problems with multicurrency support not being supported in the Canadian QB Pro 2009.)

Fix is VERY easy and I think it applies to anyone trying to run an older version of QB Pro after uninstalling a newer version.

Fix is to find the file "reboot.bat" located in the program files associated with the older QB version.
In my case it was found in "C:/Program Files\Intuit\QuickBooks Pro" folder.
Just double click on the file to run it. This file tells the system where parts of the QB program are located including the DLL libraries it needs. After running this file you should be able to run your old QB version OK. No rebooting necessary.

Out of range external monitor

The max resolution supported by that LCD HDTV is 1366 x 768. If your screen resolution in XP is set higher than that, you'll run into issues. Reduce your screen resolution first, then run the nVidia multiple display setup.
