Hey there, first time poster on the forums I usually tend to just check the reviews and the like on this site.
Anyways!
I just recently purchased a new monitor for my computer, it is an Acer 19" 1916ASD LCD monitor. It has support for DVI. I wanted to use DVI to hook up to my machine instead of the VGA. So I assume that its just plug it in and go. So thats exactly what I do. But then I get the no signal alert up on the monitor.
So I hook up the VGA cable and plug it in as well, nothing comes up again (with both plugged in at the same time). So again, I shut down the computer and then jsut plug the VGA in. It works fine this time.
Is there something you have to enable or something I need to download or install to make this work properly? I updated my graphics card driver and attempted to download a driver for the monitor but couldnt find anything.
Computer specs:
MSI 848 V Neo-P mobo
P4 2.8 GHz
1024MB RAM
ATI Radeon 9600 PRO 128MB card
SB Audigy 2 Value card
Thats pretty much the main stuff
