Are you trying to connect to the AV card or the built-in (HDI45) video? Anway, I recall that the Basic monitor, although Apple-branded, was a VGA monitor of 3rd-party manufacture. It needed an adaptor (part # 936-0112) to work with a Mac port (either kind). That didn't have switches, (as there is only 1 resolution -- 640 x 480 @ 60 Hz.) But apparently the 3rd party adaptor you're is using has switches, & it might be that you have them in the wrong position, especially in regard to the kind of sync. The Apple Basic Monitor needs separate (horizontal & vertical) sync.
