Dual display adapter

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.videocards.ati (More info?)

I decided to plug in a second monitor into my Radeon 9600 using the
digital plug(with the for wholes in shape of squire) at the back of
the card. I have a little adapter that sends the digital plug into an
analog plug. will this do any damage to my board because im using an
adapter to turn digital plug into analog?

thanks

What i think your asking is the dvi to vga adapter?

No it will not hurt a thing. i have been runing a 9700pro like that for 2
years or so now.

the txt may look a littel blury on the 2nd monitor i think thats more to do
with the 2nd dac than the dvi to vga thing.

AFAIK the only digital output on my AIW9600XT is the digital audio. I think
your describing the black 4 pin S-Video connector. It's analog. If your
using the adapter to get composite, you can get that from the yellow RCA
phono jack.
