Hello,
I am trying to set up dual monitors on a dell Latitude docking station.
We usually use a splitter from the DVI to one analog and one digital. Spliite does not fit in doigital output from docking station.
Thanks

The long flat pin on a DVI-I connector is wider than the same pin on a DVI-D connector, so it is not possible to connect a male DVI-I to a female DVI-D by removing the 4 analog pins. It is possible, however, to connect a male DVI-D cable to a female DVI-I connector. Many flat panel LCD monitors have only the DVI-D connection so that a DVI-D male to DVI-D male cable will suffice when connecting the monitor to a computer's DVI-I female connector.

You probably have a DVI-I cable and a DVI-D port on the docking station.
