WA R N I NG : To avoid damaging the LFH-60 connector on your
dual-monitor cable or on your graphics card, carefully insert the
connector on your dual-monitor cable as straight as possible into the
connector on your graphics card. Specifically, inserting the
connectors into each other at an angle is likely to bend and damage
the pins on the connector of the dual-monitor cable.
