The support stand for a flat-panel display monitor includes a rotatable bracket, a hinge assembly, a base member, a first and a second link brackets. The hinge assembly includes a connecting piece, and a pivotal shaft inserted through the connecting piece and the rotatable bracket. The pivotal shaft forms a restricting flange. The base member includes a supporting block forming a restricting pole. The first link bracket forms two limiting protrusions on the first and second end portions. The first end portions of the first and second link brackets are rotatably connected to the connecting piece, the second end portions of the first and second link brackets are rotatably connected to the supporting block. The two limiting protrusions of the first link bracket abut the restricting flange and the restricting pole respectively, thus adjusting the support stand to move between a first utmost position and a second utmost position.
