Using a Display Adapter Card
If you are not using a VGA monitor or if you want to install a
display adapter card to control your VGA monitor, read the
guidelines in this section.
Skip this section if you connected your monitor to the
computer’s built-in VGA port.
Before you can connect a monitor to a display adapter card,
you must install the card in your computer. If it is not already
installed, follow the instructions in Chapter 2 of the
User’s Guide to install an option card.
When installing the card, make sure any switches or jumpers
on the card are set properly. For example, you may need to
change a switch setting to select color or monochrome. See the
documentation that came with your monitor and display
adapter card for instructions.
If you install a display adapter card, you must set jumper J10
on the main system board to disable the built-in VGA port.
(You do not have to do this if you connected the Card to the
VGA feature connector on the main system board.) You may
also need to set jumper J11 to indicate whether you are using a
color or monochrome monitor. (If you are using a VGA
monochrome monitor, however, set the jumper for color so
your system uses the VGA memory addresses.) See Chapter 2
of the User’s Guide for instructions on changing jumper settings.
Note
If you install a high-resolution graphics adapter card that
connect to an alternate VGA interface (also called a “feature
connector”), see Chapter 2 of the User’s Guide for instructions
on connecting the card to the connector
on the main system
board.
