WHat's happening in BIOS? CHeck your system BIOS and that it is correctly setup based upon you IDE HDDs, Optical Disks, Display Adapter [AGP 2x, 4x or 8x] etc.

Reboot and see what messages if any occur.

If you still get a Display set-up error, then check in Device Manager as to what Windows XP thinks is installed, if it's incorrect then update the driver [make sure you connected to the internet when doing this]. If it is correct, then go to display properties and adjust as necessary.
