What may have happened is you tried to set the PC to 800x600, which the screen cannot support without the correct drivers. You basically pulled everything out for no reason at all...... just a configuration problem.

i did search the forum. and i saw some things about people playing with powerstrip, but i didnt see any guaranteed results. and it was mostly on other lilliputs. didnt see anything definant on the eby. and i think there is some difficulty in getting my inboard video to change to custom settings. its the pandora.

thats the thing though, i dont have an external monitor.

i connected the screen to my laptop, and it does 1024x768 and up fine. the lowest setting my laptop will do is 800x600.

ah damnit then. oh well, it gives me time to properly configure all the software in my apt and get the thing running mostly error free instead of doing it in the parking lot. and leaving my setup displayed to theiving eyes.
