Hello,
I am trying to find some enlightenment, so I am hoping this community can help me out. I have an ATI Radeon 9000 series 128MB video card and a new 19" Norwood LCD monitor. They both have a DVI-I connector and I have the cable as it came with the monitor. With the standard VGA cable, I am getting a lot of trails and shadows with motion on my monitor and from reading various forums I am understanding that using the DVI interface may eliminate some or all of this motion blur. That being said, I cannot get a signal on the monitor with just the DVI cable hooked up. If I hook both the DVI cable and the VGA cable I get a signal, but it has the same characteristics, so I am assuming it is using the VGA. Plus, it is acting like I have two monitors hooked up when both cables are plugged in.
Is there some trick that I am missing? I would assume I could hook nothing but the DVI cable up and get a signal (this port has never been used by the way, so I don't think it is bad, but who knows). I am hoping I don't have to buy a new video card, but I have a feeling that is the answer I am going to get. If you have any solutions at all I would appreciate them.
