    Please read my lips - this is not a hardware issue - thanks
    Read my lips - you can't adjust anything in the software until you have a monitor that you can see that software on. You connect a different monitor and Windows 10 will detect a different monitor make a resolution and frequency adjustment and maybe give you a screen that you can see and then maybe then you can make software adjustments.

    To quote teachermark - Good luck with that black screen.

    I haven't tried it in 10, but for older versions of Windows, the display settings could be set in Safe Mode.

    Microsoft, in their wisdom, eliminated the use of the F8 key to boot into Safe Mode. Supposedly you can cause the machine to give you the option to boot into Safe Mode by shutting it down by killing the power (holding down the PC's power button). This may take 3 tries.

    Good luck.

    I think you're misunderstanding the problem he's having. He's simply trying to boot to a USB drive, he hasn't installed anything at this point.

    And he isn't going to be able to do that with his current monitor connected.

    Which makes no sense, considering he's running Win 7 on it. Why would his monitor or his driver change just attempting to boot a USB drive?

    Anyway, all is kneel if he doesn't upgrade first and then do a clean install as suggested in my previous post.

    Because booting from the USB drive uses the software that is on the USB drive to determine what hardware is connected and is going to use the drivers on the USB drive for that hardware - booting from the USB is not going to use the drivers on the hard drive on the computer nor the settings that are set on the computer.

    Hey guys,

    I am trying to clean install windows 10. I already have windows 7 64 installed on my system. But when i try to boot from the USB Flash Drive the windows 10 logo shows up with the rotating dots and then the monitor displays the following message : "Out of range / 85kHz / 60HZ". Anyone with the same problem ?

    I have a Monitor with a resolution of 1360 x 768 / 60Hz.
    FYI : I am also using a custom VGA cable instead of the one i got with the monitor

    PS : I never faced this problem while installing any other version of windows

    Thanks,
    While booting from your flash drive hit F8 a couple of times while loading files. After that you'll get a screen and you can choose low res. option.

    Hope this solves your problem

    Jeez.

    Looking back over this, I'm at a loss.

    Poor reading comprehension on my part. If the OP was booting from a USB flash drive, the signal would be expected to be in range for most monitors.

    How you'd break that, I don't know. Buggered EDID? Try a different cable, or a different monitor, or both.

    same problem


    Going around in circles with this.
    Only way to get a display is to reinstall 10 and use the old default drivers.
    At least 10 times now.
    This happens with my shuttle on Nivida drivers and my laptop with AMD drivers.
    Both were perfect on 8.1 to this LCD TV.
    It needs to run at 1280 720.
    The drivers always set it out of range.
    With the laptop i can get a display if i mess around switching back and forth to the laptop display but its out of scale and no end of messing will correct it.
    What i have noticed the monitor drivers wont update to the Vestel drivers of the TV like they did in 8.1.
    I haven't got another monitor to try here either.
    Its ludicrous that 10 can not function properly when it could in 8.1.
