Input out of range error when trying to install

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I am trying to install Fedora 18 on my server which is a dual core opteron system with a gig of ram and on board video. When I boot. I see "starting grub" then monitor reports that the signal is out of range. If I try to boot from a live disk, it goes out of range. What do I do? I've googled around and seen lots of people saying to change different config files but how? Also what is the right thing to do in what config file? The on board graphics is only VGA as an FYI and the monitor in a LG Flatron L1710S. Thanks so much! Greg (HowTos)

Stories similar to Input out of range error when trying to install

I recently got a second hand PC and installed xubuntu on it. At boot though, instead of the grub screen, I would get the message: "Input signal out of range.

I recently installed Ubuntu 10.4 onto an older computer. Upon trying to boot off the live CD, my monitor would go "out of range" (screen would turn black and display a hardware error message "out of range").

Ubuntu 11.04 final has released and I just installed it from Windows 7 and previous Ubuntu 10.10 was erased. After installation, monitor displayed “signal out of range” while starting up, but I can choose Ubuntu or Windows 7 using up/down arrow keys and press enter to boot up although I can’t even see the grub menu.

Signal out of range 1 year 16 hours ago

Hi! I'm facing the following problem.

Recently, by some reasons I changed my hardware from Intel 82865G to Intel 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller.

And when I try to boot into Fedora15+Gnome3 (updated from F14 with preupgrade in graphic mode) even in single user mode or runlevel 3 (by editing corresponding "kernel-" line in grub.conf) I see the message "Sig

My system was working fine. Then, I upgraded from Fedora 9 to 13. Now the system sets a scan range outside of what the monitor can handle when it hibernates. I copied /etc/X11/xorg.conf from the Fedora 9 installation. I added a monitor section with horizontal and vertical frequency ranges. Xorg restarts faster, but the problem is unchanged.

CTRL-ALT-BS doesn't recover the system.

Re: Getting to Recovery Mode 1 year 16 weeks ago

I have this problem but my keyboard is not wireless. My monitor gives me an "Out of Range" error and I am trying to get to recovery mode to fix it. Holding down shift during boot-up gives me Out of Range. Holding down CTRL during boot-up gives me Out of Range. Holding Space during boot-up gives me Out of Range.

I've recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my computer. Now, every time I boot and when I shut down, my monitor goes blank and says "Input Signal Out of Range - Change Setting to 1920x1080 60Hz." Once the computer gets to the login screen, it's okay again. This problem also happens when I try to open any 3d app. My graphics card is NVIDIA GEforce 6150 SE.

Since Ubuntu 11.04 Natty, after a fresh Ubuntu installation on my desktop PC, the monitor starts into ‘input signal out of range Change Settings to **x** 60HZ’. The problem can be fixed by reset the Grub screen resolution ratio.

Hi all,

I downloaded BT5 R3 KDE 32 bit version image yesterday. While i tried to boot into GUI using the command "startx" I am getting the following error.

---------------- | DVI-D | | Out of Range | | 63KHz / 60Hz | ----------------

My Graphics is Intel HD Graphics 3000 and Monitor is LG E2041(I am suspecting this too :( )
