**Cross-Post From Computer Tech Help...**
Right, I have posted this on the "Computer Technical Help" forum but only had one reply....I have 2 issues....
1. Right, I'm not entirely sure of what to do.... I recently had my cousin build me a fairly high spec PC from scratch... I got 2 19" dell lcds (which came with VGA cables)....As they were £200 each.....I got flamed for not getting 2001FP's...but thats irrelevant now....I've made my own bed it would seem.. My problem is that the slots on the graphics card are proving to be a hinderance.... It has a VGA slot & a DVI-V slot....see below pic....I have one screen in the vga slot but the DVI-V slot is proving to be less helpful...I purchased an adaptor to convert the VGA to DVI but it doesn't fit my graphics card.....The slot on the graphics card is a 24 pin slot (I can't find the site that compares the different slots)...but basically it appears that I can't get an adaptor that will convert VGA to DVI-D... Another poster said that : [ QUOTE ] It's those extra 4 pins the adapter connects your VGA lead to - if they're not present, the card doesn't have a VGA output. The adapter is just for physically mapping pins, it doesn't convert the digital output to analog. You need to get a digital input monitor, or an analog output video card. [/ QUOTE ] I haven't the faintest idea what to do....Is it worth scapping this graphics card and getting a new one or will I have this problem all the time....? I have the 24 pin slot but need a 29 pin slot it would seem ....Is this thinking correct...? 2. Also, FWIW....I have connected my PC to my wireless broadband that runs around my house....However whenever, I swich my PC on - It knocks out the internet connection for the entire house.....I'm doing something wrong but cannot fathom it out.....Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I may be able to do to solve these problems...? Many Thanks..... |
