Yeah looks like that video card only has connectors for VGA and DVI-D. From what I've read, the DVI-D cannot be converted to analog like DVI-I can. Which means it won't support being connected to a VGA monitor [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Ugh. That's what I was afraid of. I wish I'd known that before I bought the damn video card. I didn't even know there were different types of DVI. Oh well. Maybe I'll just move to LCDs quicker than expected.
