I hooked up my second monitor to my computer which is some 19 inch and my screen just went black on windows vista x64...

I figured reboot would work, I see bios and windows selection on both monitors and I pick windows vista but screen goes black and I do not see anything , funny thing is I unplug my 19inch reboot select vista and still black screen, can not see anything

but both monitors are working fine on windows 7 RC1...could it be some drivers conflict on my windows vista? I had latest ati 9.4 >>

I do not feel like reformatting my pc again , just did it about 2 weeks ago

Check the settings for adapter/monitors/drivers. Run a driver cleaner if needed. Come on, it's easy now Very Happy

EDIT: Ah, ok Cool
