Dual dvi-i and xbox360

hi all just wondering if its possible to connect xbox 360 to my 6800ultra using dvi-i port then connecting the other dvi-i to the tv dvi-i
thus being able to use either the 360 or pc at any one time?  as my hdtv only posses 1 dvi-i port
also will i still be able to still get hd through my card

You can use two dual-link DVI displays with your card.
Each display needs one dual-link DVI port. The board has one dual-link DVI port and one Mini DisplayPort. You can use an adapter to connect the second dual-link DVI display to the Mini DisplayPort.

  • Dual-DVI Adapter and Windows 7

    Just under a month ago we have purchased a new mac mini that's running Windows 7. Mac mini is now connected to a 29" UltraWide AOC Display using a Dual-DVI link adapter. Everything is working okay in terms of resolution, but the screen cannot detect input after Windows 7 boot screen.
    When you first switch on the mac, you get the Windows start up and then it goes to a black screen. The monitor displays no signal on DVI and goes to standby. We have to unplug the DVI adapter from the thunderbolt port and plug it back in, for the monitor to come back on.
    Any ideas what could be wrong? Do we need a special driver for the adapter?

    As previously stated mount # and chroot in the install grub to /dev/sda mbr - nothing will be lost from your hdd and grub will boot in preference to winloader
    Use the the beginners guide for the commands and adapt for your system
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Be … ase_system
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Be … bootloader
    ... and always install windows first - if you did a clean windows install it may be best to install all the service packs / major updates before bothering to reinstate grub as you may find you need to repeat the process anyway

  • Apple MiniDisplayPort to Dual DVI adapter and 30" displays

    Hi all,
    I just purchased a DoubleSight DS-305W 30" display only to learn it doesn't work with the Apple MiniDisplayPort to Dual DVI adapter. I had the flickering issues described in length here:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    I thought it was the adapter firmware issue, so I drove 3 hours in the snow to the Apple store to get a replacement with the new firmware (1.0.3). After doing so, the issues persisted.
    I am now wondering if anybody has experience with other 2560x1600 monitors and this adapter. I am considering buying a NEC LCD3090WQXi-BK -- has anybody tried this one? Thanks in advance.

    My apologies for reading your mail after almost 2 years !
    Perhaps my reply may still have some relevance after 2 years. I am using HDMI to DVI connector to connect my Mac Mini Mid 2010 to Samsung XL2370 Monitor.

  • 4-Port IOGear KVM (DVI, USB) and Radeon 9600 Pro (dual G5) Problem

    I recently bought a 4-port KVM with DVI video and USB support for keyboard and mouse. I have the KVM hooked up to my dual processor G5 with DVI, to the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro video card in it. When I switch between my Windows Vista PC and my Mac (both running 85hz refresh rate and 1280x1024 resolution), the video is fine on the PC, but the Mac video is first initialized at 800x600 at 60hz. After about 3 seconds, it switches to 1280x1024 at 85hz, but this screws up my program views. I run Final Cut Express HD and DVD Studio Pro 2.0 and the windows in these programs are totally messed up. I have tried updating the drivers to the newest one from ATI, leaving the KVM on until Mac OS X Tiger is totally booted up to my desktop, before switching to one of my PCs, and updating the firmware on the KVM. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas to correct this problem? Thank you for your help!

    Problem solved.....I used a little shareware program called SwitchResX:
    http://www.madrau.com/html/SRX/About.html
    Fabulous little problem solver. You can set up custom resolutions of just about any dimension, although I only tested my needed resolution, and magically once you restart the machine, the resolutions are available in the Display preferences pane. If the display doesn't look right at first, i.e. shifted to the left or right, keep playing with it and perhaps switch back to a different resolution and then back to your custom res and all should be well. 75 Mhz as a refresh rate seemed to make my video card and the monitor happiest.
    Cheers.

  • Will the 30" cinema dual dvi card work in an intel and g5 Machine

    I don't want to have to buy this card twice as I currently use a dual G5 machine and plan to upgrade later to a Mac Pro desktop. Please advise!!!

    The same graphics card will not work in both machines. But you won't need to upgrade the video card in a Mac Pro, unless you want to. Every Mac Pro graphics card supports dual displays and at least one 30-inch display.

  • Wanting to use multiple monitors on HP hpe210Y w-DVI-I and HDMI. Audio: 5.1 Surround

    I have a HP Elite hpe210y with only two outputs of which are: 1) DVI-I and 2) HDMI. My  situation is that I have 2 new HP Monitors with VGA Cables. I have an adapter for DVI-I to VGA and also VGA to Dual VGA. I do NOT want the monitors to work as Duplicates however. I want the second monitor to be an extension. I am also interested in getting even 2 more monitors in teh near future for a total of 4.
    Is there some way I can get two monitors to work off one DVI-I ?
    Will I be able to upgrade to up to 4 monitors? 
    Is there a part I need?
    Wanted to mention that my OS is Win7 Home Premium 64 bit. I use IE9, Chrome and Firefox
    I would of never bought this from Best Buy if I had known in advance that there was just the one regular output. I see they have one called a Phoenix which I may look into.
    Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

    >Is there some way I can get two monitors to work off one DVI-I ?
    I've not yet seen a solution for that.
    You can use a hdmi2vga adapter for the second port.
    >Will I be able to upgrade to up to 4 monitors?
    >Is there a part I need?
    you can try one of these:

    http://aluratek.com/usb-2-0-high-resolution-vga-adapter
    They will use your current graphics device.
    If you are looking for a new solution - I've read about DisplayPort version 1.2 that can do 'daisy-chain connection' with multiple monitors. But this you have to 'google' yourself.

  • HELP! I have a dual monitor setup and can't use any of them for video??

    1)I have a GeForce4 MX 64MB VRAM card installed.
    2) the back is dual monitor capable, meaning it has 2 vga (CRT) ports, one on the right and an another adapted plug with a vga port on the end. ( i have no idea which type it was originaly.)
    3) I have a big dell LCD
    THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED:
    the adapter plug ripped off, reveal copper thread things and is now unusable. Although saddened, I was not worried because I don't use a dual monitor anyway and I switched to the other port. BUT THE VIDEO DOESNT WORK ON THAT PORT. I can't figure it out it just doesnt load any video?
    the truth is i would rather have a dvi cable set up because i assume its better.
    thank you for the help,
    I need it

    oops! whatever it was I reinstalled OS and it left

  • Dual DVI video card

    Have a P7-1280t - i5-2320 QUAD 3.0GHZ 6GB
    Would like to have a dual DVI setup since I have two monitors.  I had a Nvidia Qaudro card laying around...tried it but it's looking for that additional power source for the card and the powersupply doesn't have it.
    What card is compatible with my new Desktop
    Thanks

    You could just add an adapter, though not everyone is happy with that, for your 2nd port on the GT120.
    Could wait for Nvidia eVGA GTX 285 Mac Edition next month.
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/EGVA/01GP31080TR/
    There is/was and should be 8800GT with nice specs and dual monitor support.

  • Dual ADC displays and a vid card w/ no ADC ?

    Hi.
    I've got a PowerMac G4 with an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro vid. card. I bought it when I purchased my 17" Apple display not knowing that the Apple display had its own connector that required me to but a $99 adaptor that also requires a power cord!
    Anyway, my old CRT (that acted as my 2nd display on the G4) finally died. I purchased a nice 15" Apple display, but apparently forgot to consider the ADC connection.
    I need a cheap, fast solution.
    I've got a G4 with the 9800 Radeon which has a DVI and VGA connection.
    By the way, does having 128MB DDR of video ram help with rendering time??
    Ok, back to the original question.
    I also have the original video card that came with the PowerMac G4 1.2mhz Quicksilver. I believe it's an 9000 Radeon. It's got an ADC and VGA connection.
    How can I setup a dual display on the G4 with the two Apple displays? Both are ADC and neither card has (2) ADC connections.
    I've got two ADC to DVI convertors and I have the VGA to DVI convertor that came with my 17" apple display, but the DVI end doesnt match the DVI end on the 2nd ADC to DVI convertor.
    Any suggestions? Is there a dual ADC video card?

    Hi
    As far as I'm aware, the Radeon 9000 that came as the stock graphics card in certain PowerMacs had an ADC connector and a DVI connector. It also came with a DVI to VGA adapter. If this is the case you should be able to attach one monitor directly to the ADC connector and the other to the DVI connector using the $99 DVI to ADC adapter. You'd be losing the benefit of the Radeon 9800 though.
    Unfortunately there aren't any graphics cards with dual ADC connectors, as the card (and AGP slot) would have to provide enough juice to power two monitors. The options seem to be:
    1. One AGP card with an ADC connector and DVI connector, which would require one DVI to ADC adapter, such as the Radeon 9000.
    2. One AGP card with two DVI connectors, which would require two DVI to ADC adapters, such as the Radeon 9600 retail version. Mines worked perfectly, although there do seem to be problems with it in certain Quicksilvers and Digital Audio G4s.
    3. One AGP card with a DVI connector, which would require a DVI to ADC adapter, such as your existing Radeon 9800 and one PCI card with a DVI connector, which would also require a DVI to ADC adapter, such as the Radeon 9200. An AGP card with an ADC connector would also work but seems pointless given you've already got the 9800 and adapter.
    Unfortunately I'm not sure there is a really cheap solution. As already mentioned, there are VGA to DVI converter boxes on the market, but they're incredibly expensive and you'd be converting from digital to analogue and back to digital, with some loss of quality.

  • 2 DVI Monitors and HDMI TV

    Hi there,
    I recently purchased a new 6 core mac pro with the standard Radeon 5770 card. I'd like to be able to hook up my two DVI monitors (Dell 2405FPW and SP2309W) as well as a Panasonic HDMI 32inch TV to it. I was wondering if this was possible.
    Had a live chat with "TECH SUPPORT" at monoprice.com, and they suggested I purchase the Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter, as well as the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI (with digital audio) adapter. I purchased the Apple version of the Dual Link adapter and monoprice's HDMI adapter.
    I hooked them all up, but am not able to use all three monitors simultaneously. I've read apple's support pages and have seen how you may need TWO Dual Link adapters for DVI displays. but...then how do I get the HDMI tv to work?
    Has anyone been able to do this.
    Thanks in advance.

    When using three displays with one card, all Mini DisplayPort adapters must be the active type. All dual-link DVI, VGA, and some single-link DVI adapters are active, but there don't seem to be any active Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters.
    You can use a DVI to HDMI adapter with the DVI port on the card, or with an active Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter, but that won't provide audio over the HDMI link because there is no audio on DVI. You can use a separate cable for audio, or use a special DVI to HDMI adapter that can add the audio from the Mac Pro's optical output to the HDMI link:

  • Dual DVI Monitor KVM

    Hi, I like to know if there is any one have experience using a dual DVI monitor kvm switch with Mac Pro successfully. I own a 'Uniclass' 2-port dual dvi kvm, so I can share the dual monitor with another Linux box. However, it works on the Linux box, but when I tried to switch to Mac Pro, all I can see it works just in the beginning before the OS X load, that is the grey apple and small spinning circle on primary monitor, then the monitor lost the signal.
    If you have successful story, can you let me know which brand of kvm you are using? Thanks in advance.

    I'm using a RATOC Systems switch with mine. It supports
    dual monitors but I only have one monitor so i only use it
    like that. The model I have doesn't seem to be available
    in the USA. Only Japan where I live. Here's a analogue
    switch that they make however. Two of these would probably
    work if you don't mind going throught the analogue 15pin
    conversion.

    for 4 PCs and cost about $150. Switchable either by a button

    for PCs but it's working fine with the MacPro.

  • Single DVI to Dual DVI

    I own a 23" Apple clear-plastic-case display with an ADC connection. I also own an Apple DVI to ADC converter. Is it possible to use some sort of adapter to vonnect my display to a Dual DVI connection? Thanks.

    When you take the Apple DVI-to-ADC connector (with power supply) and attach it to your ADC display, it converts your display into a DVI display with a power supply "brick" in the cable. ANY DVI computer output (Single-Link or Dual-Link, or adapted from something else) can be used to power your new hybrid DVI display, since it 1920 wide or less.

  • ATI Radeon 9600 Pro 256MB 8x Dual (DVI/DVI) (AGP) Video Card for PC/Mac

    We want to be able to use our 30" cinema display from the G4 and was advised in a previous discussion to buy the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro 256MB 8x Dual (DVI/DVI) (AGP) Video Card for PC/Mac. It doesn't seem to be available anywhere. Does anybody know of an alternate video card that's currently available that will get us there? (We had the display running from a G5 that quit / logic board failure).
    Many thanks,
    Philip

    The Nvidia 7800GS is a flashed card, runs a 30" with ease.
    BruinMacs on Ebay is a great place to get one, you support the guy who wrote the original ROM for these.
    He doesn't seem to have any for sale right now, but if you email him, maybe he will list one.
    There are also flashed X800s that work on your MDD and can run a 30". They are pricey but will offer dual DVI while the 7800GS is single DVI with VGA for second display.
    There are also flashed 6600GT AGP cards which will work, but harder to find.
    Any of the above 3 will run circles around a 9600.

  • 23" momitor won't wake after sleep after installing Radeon AGP 128 dual dvi

    hello,
    My monitor won't wake after sleep mode. This is new after installing the radeon 128mb dual dvi card. I assumed it should be "ready to go" because I bought it at Tekserve, which sells and fixes Macs.
    And if I have my 17" acer display connected the desktop, upon wake-up, partially swithches to the 17" -minus the tool bar. And without the tool bar I cannot access the OS or preferences. I have to restart.
    Is there a driver to solve this dilemma? I can keep the computer on without sleep and turn off the monitors but that seems to be a poor solution.
