Lost screen on Windows 7 upgrade.

Hi all, and sorry to say I am a bit new to these matters.

I have tried to install a windows 7 free upgrade from ACER on my other computer and have had a whole succession of aborts. It was running Windows Vista home premium 64 bit, and I was sent the appropriate Windows 7 upgrade disc.

The last attempt kept identifying anticipated conflicts, and suggesting applications to be un-installed before proceeding, one of which was the Catalyst graphics driver and control centre.

I called a halt after whole variety of further stops, ' Windows cannot boot in windows 7' etc, and switched off forgetting I had un-stalled the catalyst software. Now when I power up, I just have a black screen that just says 'no signal'.

Is there any way I can resurrect the screen image to re-install the lost driver???

Hi Brucemstrs - Welcome to w7forums

I had a similar exreience once.
I posted about it in this thread. - My computer booted to a black screen

Do you have more than one graphics port to connect a monitor?
If so can you check and see if there is a signal on the other port?

Thanks Clifford - I'll check and come back

I have checked Clifford, and as I suspected there is only a single port for the monitor to connect to

I wanted to be sure of course.

Still scratching my head????

I'm afraid I only have two other solutions.
Try this one first - http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-3...ter-won-t-boot. I'm not sure it will work but worth a shot.

If that doesn't work, you may need to check all your inner PC connections. Remove all components and reconnect them memory and PC card as well as all cables.

OK Clifford, Thanks again for your help.

I will proceed as you suggest, and I'll let you know of course.

Thanks again.
