Hi Valerie,
this is a known issue, exchange the cable with any other cable which
you have in the lab. Some of the cables will only work with PC - I had
one of them too. I ordered two Zalman's and one was *bad* but changing
the cable from one to the other made it clear that something was wrong
with the cable. Since then I ordered another two so in total we have
four and all are fine.
Are you using the DVI or the VGA cable - try both.
Good luck,
Jürgen

Dear Jurgen,
we have many macs but the display says "check cable" when we plug it
in. Neither of our macs has a graphics card listed on their web site.

You are saying you don't have any Macs in your institute?
We're running the Zalmans on Mac mini, MacPro or Macbookpro as
secondary screen.

Hello
before you buy a Zalman monitor, check out their list of supported
graphics cards carefully. We bought one for a trial and don't have a
single computer with a suitable graphics card in our institute...

Hi, Francois
We bought it 5 months ago from a supplier in Japan.
(and it has been put back in a box under a desk.)
Zalman has its own web site in Japan. Model name is the same.

You can buy it from many shops through the web.
Check the most famous comparison site in Japan, kakaku.com:

Hello,
By the way, does anyone got this LCD in Japan?
My team is interested to know the model's exact
reference as well as from where you ordered it.
Thanks a lot,
Francois.
