** add's his question..

I have a Illyama Visionmaster 450 monitor (19 inch) and when i am in X, my monitor makes a high pitch noise... (i guess there's something wrong in the configuration)

(by the way, the monitor is quiet as a church mouse in Windows XP (any resolution, refrash rate)


?

there are several boot options ->
press F2 when you are allowed to type sth. for the first time after Power on your machine.

There appears a list with commands to use a more safe mode.
