I have a HP Pavillion monitor, it is an older monitor,
but worked fine with Win 95 and 98. As soon as I switched
to XP, however, the monitor does not work as soon as XP
starts the monitor just stays black why is this?
 
This is probably a video card driver issue, not necessarily a monitor issue.
Try booting in Safe Mode and see if it works then. To do this just hold
down the F8 key after the
system POSTs and you'll see a boot menu with this option. If it does work
in Safe Mode then contact your video card manufacturer and see if updated
drivers for Windows XP are available.
