pc screen before start up

[Guest poppy]

hi,i have a question , a friend was having trouble with her pc and tried to

sort it out herself, somewhere along the line it went wrong and now the

screen shows this when the pc is switched on but BEFORE windows is

started,it is white and has these numbers- 30KHz 60HZ, then it changes to-

48KHz 72Hz- 64KHz 60Hz,i went to hers today and got her windows up and

running again but having never seen this before , was wondering if anyone

could tell me what it means and how i can fix it,im probably wrong but im

thinking along the lines of the screen resolution, but having never come

across this before im not sure, thank you all very much
