Display goes blank at starting up changing resoultion

Display goes blank at starting up changing resoultion: Posted by Walter on August 4th, 2003; I just changed the display resolution on our NT server
without realizing our system can not handle it. While
booting up, the moniter is fine, soon as NT 4.0 starts,
the moniter goes blank. The system is on and the server
is available to the network, but I can't change the
resoultion back because I can't see anything...
Help!; Posted by Dave Patrick on August 5th, 2003; You can boot vga mode ( with /BASEVIDEO appended to boot.ini startup line)
and set the refresh rate to a viewable setting.

Something like;

[boot loader]
timeout=10
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Win NT"
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Win NT [VGA mode]" /basevideo
/sos
