Monitor jumps to 'Signal error' when I start a program

I have a problem with a program I've just bought/ I try and run the .exe and the monitor clicks off and goes 'out of signal'.

The program still runs because I can hear it! I can alt+ctrl+del and stop the program.

Has anyone come across this problem in general with graphics cards and programs?

Thanks
 
click start, run, type dxdiag and then enter

Then on the more help tab click override and enter a value your monitor supports and press ok :)

Ahha, thats a similar problem to what I've been having with the latest ATI drivers. As soon as I try and watch a film or DVD etc, it will turn off my monitor but I will still be able to hear the audio... Will have to give that solution a try:)
