Findibulator Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 I have an ASUS 7300GT board that drives my main display beautifully via the DVI connection with NATIT .02 (full QE, etc.) Problem is, when I try to drive a secondary display via the VGA connector, it only outputs on the VGA display. Initially, it looks correct after is set the res., but the it auto-adjusts to be way off to the right... So my problem is twofold - it won't drive the VGA properly solo (sync issue?) it does not drive the DVI at all when I connect the VGA cable to display #2 - no dual display Any thoughts? I'm using JAS 10.4.8, updated to 10.4.10 using diabolik's Natit Dual v.02 installer. I've seen a few posts about DVI-VGA adapters sometimes being necessary. Perhaps I need to go VGA on both ?(ick..)

Findibulator Posted September 20, 2007 Author Share Posted September 20, 2007 I just remembered - I have an older 5500FX PCI card. Can anyone comment on whether it would make sense to just have one card drive each display? Will natit freak out over this?

Findibulator Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 Well, I got it. If I hook both up to VGA (DVI-VGA adapter on one port) both displays work fine. Analog is tolerable as long as I use good quality cables. Hope this helps someone else out there...

duklaa Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Well, I got it. If I hook both up to VGA (DVI-VGA adapter on one port) both displays work fine. Analog is tolerable as long as I use good quality cables. Hope this helps someone else out there... It helped me!! I had this exact same issue and couldn't solve it for days. Just connecting DVI-VGA adapter fixed it! My guess is that it would work the other way as well (with both connected to DVI using VGA-DVI adapter on the VGA port). It seems that it works as long as both are DVI connected or both are VGA connected. I can't test it right now because I don't have my VGA-DVI adapter..but will report in a couple of days.
