Let's get to our Business... Since my laptop is R.I.P. (well it's about its AC adaptor), I decided to work on my 10 years old Desktop. When I'm in the middle of my works, *Bang* *Kaboom* "Electricity Gone" (Fav. Quotes by Moonie - A Friend From Lekool). When it back, I turned on my power button.... And......
The Windows didn't work. Tried to use recovery console, it works but errors errors keep appears.... So, I decided to re-install my XP.
Formatting, installing, setting this and that... Download and installing drivers (my CD Drivers were broken T_T )... - Still Fine - ..... Installing VGA, need restart, OK. -Restarting-... then -Windows Loading screen..... then BLACK SCREEN waiting for 10 mins, but still nothing, the Monitor LED blinking (but there is no "No Signal" indicator), trying keyboard numlock.... can't... it's not working....
What will you gonna do? Kick your CPU? Hammer down your monitor and burn it away!
Wait wait.... Chill... Relax... and Googling.... Trying to start windows in Safe Mode And VGA mode -That's work, but didn't fix the problem-.... googling again.....

How To Enter Safe Mode or VGA mode?
When your CPU started, keep pressing F8, Choose the boot device from your HDD device, but keep pressing F8 again.... and you'll end up in another menu:
- Safe Mode
- Safe Mode with Networking (you can use internet with this one)
- blablablaa ( I don't remember)
- Enable VGA mode (This one is for VGA mode)
- blablabla (etc. :p )

Trying one by one... checking my Bios from this solution:
settings i changed two settings:
- Plug And Play O/S (Advanced > PCI/PnP Settings): Changed from Yes to No.
- Initiate Graphic Adapter (Advanced > Chipset Settings > North Bridge Chipset Configuration): Changed from PEG/PCI to PCI/PEG.
But.... It's already been like that.... so, I didn't change any.... but reading at forum above, this problem is occurred with those Nvidia and ATI user.... also, all those solutions are leading into On-Board Video card.... *a lamp appeared above my head*
This what I do:
