I pushed the test button, and ZAPP. No more screen LOL. I was going to suggest that this sounds a bit like Ashish Kulkarni's problem, which turned out to be a monitor that couldn't do DDC correctly (Options "NoDDC" fixed it), but his log file ended abruptly as soon as DDC was initialized. I went back to look at your log file and I see you're running version 4.0.1a. Have you considered moving to the current release? I don't have any specific reason to think it would help, but my impression is that 4.2.0 is quite good at configuring itself. -- Remember, more computing power was thrown away last week than existed in the world in 1982. -- http://www.tom.womack.net/computing/prices.html
