Please, help me.

My old CRT monitor automatically turns off, when booting windows 7. But when I'm using an older version of Windows, my monitor is working properly.

Is this a problem of incompatibility or something? help me guys.

I have encountered the same problem before. It's on the resolution. Your resolution is very high for your CRT monitor.  Just pick a lower resolution and the problem is solved. good luck!!

I agree with you, Mr. Jhune. Some old monitors may not be compatible in high resolutions for Windows 7 in modern LCD monitor.

Just try to use a lower resolution, that will fit to your display.

Thanks! but how can I change the resolution?  if I can't even boot Windows? It automatically shuts down, upon loading Windows.

In your case, I guess the only solution is to first connect  your system unit to a different monitor that supports higher resolution. Then change the resolution of your Windows.

Now try it again with our old monitor.
