Hi all,
I looked around the forums and havn't seen this discussed......
I have a newly built system consisting basically of an Asus A8V Deluxe Motherboard, ATI Radeon 9600XT and Samsung 213T 21.5" LCD. That's the relevant parts, anyway. The system works flawlessly with the exception of the following:
When I plug in JUST the DVI cable from the Card to the Monitor, and boot, the monitor never detects any video signal and stays black with the samsung logo saying it can't find a signal.
Booting with VGA cable connected is fine, monitor flashes it's little "Analog" overlay a bit then the word disappears. In the Catalyst wizard, I only see analog as a choice to be my desktop display.
When I connect BOTH cables, the boot up is normal, monitor flashes analog, but now the Catalyst software gives me both the analog and DVI options, and when I uncheck the "analog" option for desktop use, the computer processes, the screen blanks and then comes back on, and I'm provided with information that all of the digital options have been set.
Device manager with both cables shows one Samsung 213T and 2 plug and play monitors. Deleting the plug and play monitors does no good as they come right back after reboot.
I have searched the net and the manual, but have this question....should I need to do anything else to get things to work other than install ATI Drivers, Samsung Drivers, and ASUS drivers, then plug in DVI cable? Do I NEED to have both cables plugged in and choose the monitor every time? I suppose I must be missing SOMETHING, perhaps a jumper?
Thanks for any help...it's rather frustrating.
