| 883545 | 2010-05-10 06:25:00 | yes but why would this cord be made in the first place? this is what it is for. if anyone has any ideas. let me know | goodiesguy (15316) | ||
| 883546 | 2010-05-10 07:29:00 | It is made for a card that can convert a VGA signal to a TV signal, if yours does, it will work. If not, it won't, simple as that. You could try researching the capabilities of your card..... (have you tried it with the actual VGA port rather than using that converter?) |

| 883547 | 2010-05-10 08:27:00 | seems that you are right. sorry for wasting your time. | goodiesguy (15316) | ||
| 883548 | 2010-05-10 08:45:00 | No problem, I wish I could have been able to help. | KarameaDave (15222) | ||
| 883549 | 2010-05-10 09:35:00 | ah, here's something which you mite be able to help with. i've hooked up a second monitor instead (DELL E153FP) i have installed drivers. all i need help with is that its only showing at its native 1024x768 resolution wheras my main monitor (Samsung Syncmaster 740n which a friend found in a skip and gave to me, score!) is showing at 1280x1024 resolution (its max resolution which i prefer). i need the dell to be at the same resolution. They are both lcds, and the dell has a backlight issue occasionally when it hasent been on in ages (but aint an issue). my dad has an IBM lcd monitor also using the same video card as me (ATI Radeon 9600), and has the option for higher resolutions, tho he likes his at 1024x768. sorry for all the trouble but i though i'd ask someone. i normaly wouldnt ask for help as i figure out this kind of stuff, build my own pcs , and for others ocasionally, all the time. but i feel like poo and am off school (im 14) so i really dont have the brain power at the moment, sorry. |

| 883550 | 2010-05-10 09:54:00 | Looks like thats the max for the Dell. So you're not going to get it any higher. Info here (support.dell.com). Put it up any higher (if it can go higher) will probably screw the display up | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
