Which Dock, one, two or Plus (although it may not matter)? The 2 and Plus
have more VRAM. I believe the original may have difficulty with multisync
monitors unless you use an adapter which tells the Dock a specific
resolution.
Try zapping PRAM as it may be remembering a different monitor config.
Did you use the Dock successfully after installing the Dayna card or are you
saying you installed it but did not use it afterward? The card should not
interfere at all. Perhaps there was something damaged or dislodged during
the card installation.
Also, the original Dock had 512k VRAM but was upgradable to 1MB. Perhaps
upgrade was dislodged during card install.
