No display after restart

Hi,
I got a problem with my ne Ati Radeon 1950 Pro.
My complete system:
Carte graphique: Ati Radeon x1950 pro
Écran: Acer 19in Wide
Boîtier: Antec Sonata III (power suply 500w)
carte mère: Asus P5k atx LGA 75 etx...
processeur: Intel Core 2 Duo E6750
mémoire: Corsais XMS2 PC2-6400 DDr2-800 2x1GB
disque dur: 2xWestern Digital Cavier SE16 250GB SATA2 7200RPM
lecteur dvd: LG GSA-H55L
clavier+souris: Logitech cordless internet pro desktop
carte réseau: Linksys WMP54G wireless PCI adapter

The problem is when I boot, after the logo of windows XP (loading) the screen get a No signal message but I can ear the sound of windows. This is really strange, since I didn't change anything on my computer (I had the 7.9 driver and all was working fine since today). I tryed many thing to resolve the problem! Get out the card and put it back. No change. After I loaded windows in VGA mode. It's working, but when I want to put the display in 1440x900, the screen get the No signal message. Same thing when I put the refresh rate at 60Hz. I tryed Installing the new driver. I loaded in safe mode, uninstalled the driver. When the driver are all uninstall, I can boot windows XP without problem. But after I reinstall the driver (7.10) after the loading the screen get the No signal message! I searched the knowledge base and saw that there was a thing for Acer, but the page isn't there anymore ...

Anyone experencied a similar problem?? Solution ... I CAN'T put my resolution in 1440x900 in VGA mode with the good driver installed why?? :'(

Thanks for your futur help. I need my computer!!

This is freaking creepy, this just happened to me just now. Doing a System Restore fixed it for me just now. WTF.

might be the monitor which is messed up
my monitor doesnt support anything over 75 hz...
your system seems good though..
Just do a system restore or just reinstall the drivers again anyway

For some reason Ati Radeon x1950 pro not friendly with Asus motherboard..

I solved my big problem!
I tryed my PC on an other monitor (HD TV) It was working! Tested with a VGA cable with a DVI adaptator for my graphic card. After I tested the VGA cable on my orignial ACER monitor with the VGA cable with the adaptor for my graphic card (my monitor has 2 port VGA and DVI) It was working!!!
Now the problem can be the DVI cable or DVI port of my graphic card or monitor.
I have an other computer whit 1 DVI port and 1 VGA port (we use the VGA port, since we have a VGA only monitor). So I tested with the DVI cable on this computer on the DVI of monitor ACER. It was working! So the problem should come from the graphic card!
Back on my comp. I retested the VGA cable with adaptator, still working. With the computer open I swapped cable, so I plugged the DVI cable. See what, The screen shown everything correctly!! IT'S WORKING NOW!! woohoo.

So, in conclusion, unpluggin the DVI cable and replug it with computer open solved the problem (i think or maybe pluggin the VGA cable?)
