Scott, >> Instead of trying a different monitor, hook up the additional monitor and see if you get the login screen on the second monitor. << Well, I hooked up the second monitor using the DVI-VGA gender blender (just as I do on my own system) and, whaddaya know, BOTH monitors came up displaying the same desktop on both. I went into the ATI software control panel and disabled the second monitor (the one I'd added), then shut down and disconnected the 2nd monitor and started back up and, voilà! Ze moniteur originale, she works! Beats my pair of jacks. Thanks for steering me onto something that worked, Scott.
