I don't remember if this unit has a VGA or an old Apple monitor connection. VGA monitors support a serial protocol that communicates the monitor capability to the computer. Some apple monitors did the same thing using ADB. If the monitor is when the computer boots it will default to low resolution mode which is safe for old low resolution diaplays. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
