You have found the correct driver?

Try using 1024x786x32 at the highest refresh rate that your monitor is capable of.

    Turn off 'Automatic Reboot on System Failure'.
    Forget that LOL.
    Can you try your ram in a different slot?

      Forget that, it's not rebooting.

      It is still doing the exact same thing.  Switched the RAM too.

      Can you test the monitor on another computer?

      Also be certain that your videocard fans and/or heatsink are not clogged with dust, it may be overheating and shutting down the second you demand performance.

      Switched the moniter and it works fine on my friend's computer.

      I know it's not the video card that's the problem cause I switched that with my friend's too and my computer did the same thing.

      You may wish to download the latest drivers and install them, but use the following tool once the previous drivers are removed:

      Driver Cleaner
      -- Removes driver remains after the uninstallation thereof.
      -- Read the instructions carefully!

      Well I did that and now the moniter loses the signal when Windows tries to boot up.  Only way it works now is on safe mode.
