I started with the 4 boot disks for win 2K, then installed
Win 2K, and during the restart phase of the installation,
the monitor did not come back on. I have checked and
double checked the monitor on other systems, but to no
avail.

Any ideas?
 
Try a different monitor.

You stated that you checked it on other systems. Did it work on the other
systems?
If it does not work on the other systems then you obviously have something
wrong with the monitor/ monitor cables.

Do you see anything on the monitor when you first turn the computer on prior
to Windows starting up?
If you can, then you may be booting with an incorrect video driver. You can
press F8 during boot up and select VGA mode.


Thank you,
