I just setup my new system, and on the video card there are two DVI ports. My monitor is old.. but I do have a converter for the monitor Dsub connection to DVI so it fits into the video card. The problem is I can't see anything. So I tried the monitor with the adapter still on in the computer I'm using now, which has an older card with one Dsub and one DVI connection. I plugged the monitor in to the DVI, and nothing comes up. So I have two totally different computers (different cards), two monitors (both old), and I can't get any sign of life from any card when I use the DVI. One other annoyance is when I plug the adapter in the monitor turns orange, so it doesn't say no connection or anything like that. Does my monitor need to be newer even if I have a Dsub to DVI adapter? If not, could the adapter be bad?
Hate this stuff ><
Thanks in advance
