HP S2031 LCD MONITOR displays "Input signal out of range - Change resolution..Then boots directly into Ubuntu" in Dual boot setup: Windows 7 Home Premium/ubuntu 12.04 LTS ever since 12.04LTS was installed on 22 July 2012 on Compaq CQ5320F.
Have been running dual-boot: Windows 7 Home Premium/Ubuntu 10.04LTS - since 2010. Installed Ubuntu 12.04LTS on 22 July 2012, and have been unable to boot into Windows since. On boot-up, I get the message "Input signal out of range - Change resolution to 1600 X 900 @ 60Hz." This message stays on the screen for a long period, then system boots into Ubuntu 12.04LTS, with no opportunity to boot into Windows at all (i.e. no grub boot screen showing my various options to boot. Have tried "Restoring Ubuntu" as shown on page 80 of Ubuntu User,Summer 2012) - with no improvement, and have booted up using the "Compaq Presario CQ5320F Bootable Disk" I made in 2010 when I first bought this computer - to evaluate the hardware (it only evaluated the computer, and very little of the monitor) -- none of which helped with my problem. Have also gone into the computer Bios and looked for any settings that might help--none of this helped at all!
HARDWARE: Compaq CQ5320F computer; 3GB Ram; AMD Athlon(tm) II X@ 240 Processor X2; 500GB Hard Drive - Partitioned 250/250 split between Windows 7 Home Premium & Ubuntu 12.04LTS & HP DVD/CD-RW Drive.
MONITOR: HP S2031 20" LCD Monitor.
Question: What can I do to restore the Dual-Boot capability -- Any help would be appreciated!
