I have two 15 inch flat screen monitors, and niether of
them will work when I try to install Windows. They both
work when the computer boots, but as soon as the setup
begins, they both go black. I went into the settings on
one of them and looked at the resolution, and as soon as
Setup started, the resoltion changed to 1280x1024, which is
not supported by the monitor. I am therefor unable to
complete the installation. Thanks for your help.
 
Try installing XP with just one monitor first. If successful, install the
video drivers and then add the second monitor.

resolution in the answer file along with many other things.
