Monitor Dies Immediately After Windows Login

Hello,

I am met with a most curious problem. I am running a DELL LAPTOP and here is what happens:

I turn on the laptop. Everything is working perfectly fine. I get to the WINDOWS XP Login page. I have HOME EDITION, so it's like, ME and SOMEONE ELSE. I proceed to login as I usually do into ME, and then, my desktop will flash for a split second before my monitor dies. No backlight - just pitch black and nothing else. The computer itself is still running, as I hear the Windowns login jingle and numerous other jingles, so it's just the monitor that is messed up.

Restarting, etc, does not help.

HOWEVER, I just tried logging into to the SOMEONE ELSE account, and everything works fine!!

This must be some kind of software issue. Can anyone help me understand why my monitor dies completely only when I'm logging into the ME user acct?

Please email me your comments. Thanks.
