    I recently instaslled a new game for my PC. However, when I try to play it my monitor goes black and the message 'SIGNAL OUT OF REACH' is dispayed. I have tried changing the refresh rate and also doing this in safe mode but i always get the same message. Any advice please :confused

    Hi

    What Windows version and Service Pack you using?
    What Make and Model is the monitor?
    What Game is this?

    Have you installed the latest graphic card driver for your graphic card if one is available?

    Do you know what screen resolution you are using? say 1024x968 as an example, find this by opening up Display Properties. Try lowering the resolution from what you have now set just one notch and see if that helps.
