Heres whats wrong.
The laptop has a bad screen, so its connected to an external compaq 7500 crt monitor. I can see some of the screen on the lcd and the gui looks fine, but on the external monitor its garbled with artifects after the initial setup display, the very beginning of setup showed fine, this is my first attempt at Linux and would appreciate any help.

Ive installed Ubuntu from within windows XP, and when it loads everything seems fine through the loading screen, but when Ubuntu boots its just a mess of colors.

I temporarily replaced the broken LCD on the laptop and everything shows up fine, but still the external monitor has bad resolution and artifacts rather than a viewable area. please help.
