I just ordered a new computer from CyberPowerPC 2 or 3 weeks ago. I'm satisfied with it for the most part, it gets decent framerates in most of my games maxed out. Only problem is that I'm having a powerup problem, the computer will powerup just fine but it won't send a signal to the monitor sometimes. I restart it several times by holding the power button and it eventually works. Could this be doing any damage to my computer?

It's not a major deal, but this shouldn't be happening. It could be due to gay Window Vista, which I shouldn't have gotten... Also, it has frozen up during Guild Wars: Nightfall 2 or 3 times... And once when I wasn't running a game...

If someone could help me out here that would be great... Thanks in advance.

If this is a new PC, I'd just call up their support line. If they can't fix it on the phone, return it for a new one or get your money back.

Ah... Too much of a hassle... It's working fine now, I don't know exactly what was wrong. I tried switching the DVI to VGA adapters, and now i'm not having that problem, I guess the adapter was just bad. I suppose the freezing problems were due to Vista, but hopefully the service pack they are releasing will fix them.
