Philips Unknown Problem

Hello. About three weeks ago I bought a new Windows Vista (RM make) computer, and a Philip's 190B Monitor. I am very happy with it and it has worked very well for this period of time. However, today when I turned it on, it went through the usual loading procedures (the RM insignia comes up, as does BIOS Settings in the bottom right corner) and after this the screen goes black apart from a small white underscore that flashes continuously in the top left corner instead of the Windows Vista welcome board appearing. I have left the monitor alone for substantial periods of time yet nothing happens aside the flashing line in the top left corner. Any help would be welcome. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. :)

Hello and thanks very much for your post. I now have some more information. It seems my idiotic mother locked the computer instead of turning it off. Do you know how to unlock it now? It says:

Setup Entry Key Detected

Enter password to unlock the system.

Any ideas? :s

Philips 190B monitor turn black, then show blue Philips and then it is ok. It kept going through this routine

I could be completely 'out to lunch.' but - what are you doing with the Phillips? Is it connected to Dish? We have Dish. An antique system. I called them a couple of days ago, because I was taping something, and the screen went to a violent pink. The next day, they came out, and replaced Everything. Dish, box, and remotes. They understood that the old sytem was breaking down. Hope you find a solution. These toys - we depend on. Then they implode. Annoying, in the extreme.

Philips PC Camera SIC4750 is only compatible with OS Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows 2000 & Win XP. (Only 32Bit system ie x86)

FAQ from Philips (Ref. Link)
Question: Can I use my webcam with Windows 7 or Vista ?
Answer:- At the time this webcam was designed, Windows Vista and Windows 7 operating systems did not exist yet. Unfortunately, the internal hardware of the webcam does not match the requirements of these operating systems. Therefore we cannot provide a software upgrade (driver upgrade) to support Windows Vista or Windows 7. We apologize that we are not able to support you in this matter.

Too bad Philip do not provide the drivers if your are Using Vista or Win 7 or any x64Bit system.
