Ok so heres the situation, i have one 23" monitor that has vga, dvi and hdmi inputs, I also have two 21.5" that only have a vga input at the back, I want to get them to work with eyefinity so that i can play games across all three, this is my graphics card it has: Mini DisplayPort x 2 Dual-link DVI x 1 Single-link DVI x 1 HDMI x 1 Cables I have: 2x DVI to VGA cables 1x and ACTIVE mini display port to DVI: and an assortment of DVI and VGA cables, my main question is how can I get it to work, I've tried two DVI to VGA and a mini DP to DVI, but one of the VGA monitors isn't detected. if you guys could come up with a combination that works, it would really help me out, sorry if the format of this topic is strange I don't post to forums much, Thanks in advance :) |

Problem is that one of the DVI connections cant do VGA. So. You'll need to need to do 1 of the following: 1. Connect 1 monitor to DVI->VGA that can only do VGA. Connect the one that can do DVI to DVI (Digital only). Buy a MiniDP->VGA adapter and connect it that way. 2. Connect 1 monitor to DVI->VGA that can only do VGA. Connect the one that can do DVI to MiniDP->DVI Adapter. Buy a MiniDP->VGA adapter and connect it that way. Eitherway, you need to buy a MiniDP to VGA adapter. |
