Ignore DVI. You don't need it, despite what anyone else says. I've not seen any recent generation LCD that didn't produce a crystal clear picture from a VGA signal.
You told us before the monitor has a VGA connector. So use a VGA cable and connect the VGA port from the computer to the VGA port of the monitor. Case closed.

So how do I get the DVI of the monitor connected to the supposedly (but perhaps nonexistant) DVI connector of the nVidia GeForce FX5200XT graphics card? The card came with an HP a640n desktop which I purchased approximately September 2004. -- cheers, Stephen -- ---------------------------------------- WIN-HOME Archives: http://PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM/archives/WIN-HOME.html Contact the List Owner about anything: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Official Win-Home List Members Profiles Page http://www.besteffort.com/winhome/Profiles.html -- ---------------------------------------- WIN-HOME Archives: http://PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM/archives/WIN-HOME.html Contact the List Owner about anything: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Official Win-Home List Members Profiles Page http://www.besteffort.com/winhome/Profiles.html
