  • Can't work with Macbook mini-dvi adapter to s-video out under Windows..??

    hi..
    My macbook can work well with mini-dvi adapter to tv out under mac os,but it can't work under windows os..
    If anyone's using their Macbook and has any comments please let me know..
    Thanks.
    Richard

    Yes, if you can get an s-video cable and plug that into the SCART adapter, that would be better than plugging in composite video.
    Clearly, having an SCART connection is not going to "improve" the video going in, you're going to be limited by the lowest quality connection. An s-video connection will provide a higher (but probably not a lot) quality signal than composite video.

  • Mini-DVI not supported under Windows XP?

    Hi all,
    I recently picked up a mini-DVI to VGA adapter and a 17" LCD from Lenovo (IBM). Under OSX, the dual displays works wonderfully well and easy. The OS picked it up right away and ran with it.
    Under Windows XP, however, no such luck. The display will mirror the iMac during the Windows boot-up process and then go black once XP is booted. The monitor claims nothing is attached to it.
    Windows will play the "ding-ding" sound whenever I unplug or plug the adapter and even claims to see the monitor via the Display settings panel.
    Google told me several people have voiced this complaint while logged into Windows on their Intel machines. Does anyone here know of a fix or workaround? Thanks!

    Any ideas? I am having the exact same problem. The funny thing is when I boot in XP the windows logo is displayed on my external monitor. But then disapears. I will try and update the ATI monitor drivers, and see if there is a bootcamp update. But anyone with info please let me know!!
    thanks

    Although I can see an application bar on my document, it is "greyed out" under the window menu. Specifically when I click the icon to arrange documents ie - tile vertically/horizontally - everything is greyed out

    Hi,
    Do you have a project open?
    if so double click on a sequence and the timeline should appear. Or start a new project if you don't have one open.

  • Port In/Out under Windows Vista/7

    Hello!

    I think the unbiased readers at this forum should take notice of this fact.   The original person who posted this question raised a question that was of a "rudimentary" nature.   I will repeat that point again, - the question was of a rudimentary nature - not even fundamental.     The replies to this individual were less than courteous. 
    Take notice that the people who are "associated" with NI felt my post was inappropriate but did not seek to criticize the "rude" responses to the original poster.   Again, my point, the NI associated people are not criticizing their colleagues but rather the "customer". 
    The point I had made is not wrong.   Operating systems are designed to input and output data.    Every O/S can input and output data.  
    This type of program was written for just about every O/S before to my knowledge.  The people who replied negatively with regard to this generality cited an exception rather than the rule.   I will repeat again, they cited an "exception" rather than the general condition.  This is a standing fact. 
          The public should take notice of the point that just saying someone is "wrong," does not make the individual "wrong".   
    To be exact, when you say someone is wrong, you must support it with facts.  
          You will notice that I could argue that my statement was theoretically true and be theoretically correct.  But I will not.  In deference to "civil" communication I will say that an exception may exist to my initial statment - in order to assuage the "feelings" of the NI associated people who replied "negatively."    Thus, leaving the NI associated people a "moment of repose", to stand back, and fully consider what they have written.
        The "NI associated people" are "outraged" because I used the term "simple" to describe the task at hand.  "Simple" is a relative description.    This task is fairly simple if you are a programmer employed to design, create, and operate, the operating system.
           I will concede that this may not be a simple task, if you are an "outsider" looking in  (a programmer with no inside information from the OS designer).    However, even if you are an outsider,  and you are employed by a software company, this will be one of the company's fundamental assignments that it will have to naturally pursue.   You have many hours per day to look into this assignment.    In addition, a team of programmers has probably been tasked with this assignment - making this assignment much easier. 
            The measure of complexity is now measured over how much time the individual has been afforded to look into the assignment.   
    The current condition:   
    VISTA O/S in "programmer design time" is now an old operating system.  It is now 2 generations behind the current OS.    Therefore, the time frame to find a "working" remedy has spanned many, many, years.   I will repeat again, the time frame to find a working remedy has spanned - years.  
    This is where my analysis becomes irrefutable.  Here is a link which substanciates that a "solution" was found a long time ago by National Instruments itself:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/496CD7613F331EA4862571E200633507
    They looked into this.
    What I don't like about a lot of technical support people is that instead of looking at the facts as they stand, it appears that some tech support personnel will together as a group, and agree, that if the question raised by the novice appears to be too difficult for them to answer, they will put down the person raising the question.    This is a rudimentary question that all beginners must raise.  
        Some tech support people can just e-mail the person the solution (because we know a solution exists) and tell the person the "pitfalls" of using the program and tell the individual, "use at your own risk". 
          Instead of just, posting the program source code, or e-mailing the code to the "customer", they just publicly put him/her down.
          Instead of "thinking as a group" and convincing themselves that they are in the right, they should just step back back for a moment, get out of "group think" mode, and consider what the customer is asking for. 
    "I want a simple one, or a simple zero, out of a port"  or
    "I want to read stored data at an io port address" (not "streaming data")
    does that really "sound" like too much to ask for.   
      To be fair:  
    With regard to accomplishing this task, it might be a lot to ask for depending upon the "artificial" complexity that has been designed into the OS.   
    But does the task at hand really so "sound" difficult.  
    The point I am trying to make, the replies were not balanced, nor considerate, to the customer.
    The points I have made in this discussion do not reflect upon all "NI associated" programmers".    There are many courteous NI programmers and courteous NI "associates" my comments do not reflect upon them.    I am by no means making a general statement, nor have I made a general statement, referring to these people.  
    If I have offended anyone with my replies,  I apologize.   I believe in being courteous, honest, and fair to all those whom I correspond with.   Please try to understand the points I have tried to make - they are "balanced."

  • Sound Blaster X-Fi: Enabling digital out under Windows Vi

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded Windows XP machine to Windows Vista Ultimate. On the XP install, I had my Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Music (SB0460) plugged into an external AV receiver via the digital out jack on the back of the card. This all worked fine.
    Following the Vista upgrade, the receiver seems to be no longer geting a signal from Windows. None of the cabling was touched so I'm assuming there must be some setting in Vista to enable the digital out, but not for lack of trying, I can't seem to find it.
    I've installed the latest drivers from the site and the sound card appears to be working correctly. The sound manager in the Control Panel shows three devices (Speakers, SPDIF Out, and Headphones). I've tried it with Speakers set to default and also with SPDIF set to default, but no joy. On Speakers, I can get sound output by plugging in headphones, but on SPDIF, nothing.
    I've also looked through Audio Consol's settings and there doesn't appear to be any "Decoder" option that is mentioned on some early posts I found on other sites relating to this problem.
    Any suggestions on how to enable digital out under Vista would be most appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ben

    Yeah, what he said.

  • Monitor Out - Qosmio X300-12S

    I have a Qosmio X300-12S and I want to use my monitor out and use it into my TV.
    I don't have an HDMI TV, so can't use that output.
    I have bought a Monitor out to Composite/Scart but can't get it to work. I have tried going into the NVidia Control Panel and forcing rigorous detection, but with no luck.
    Can anyone give me any clues?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Thanks for your replies - my laptop only has a DVI / Monitor Out and a HDMI out.
    Not sure what you mean by enabling the right port on my TV. I have plugged the composite cable into the sockets, and I tried a S-Video cable, but had no luck with either of them.
    I don't really want to buy a HDTV so that I can watch things (although I'd like one, just don't want to pay for it!!!), but I feel like I'm having less choice as the time ticks on.
    Thanks again...

  • Equium A100-306 Is the monitor out on the side the same as a DVI out?

    Hello i was wondering is the monitor out on the side of my laptop the same as a DVI output? I am looking to connect my laptop to my hd tv, what is the best way? Can i use some sort of HDMI cable? Like a DVI to HDMI cable? Or is there a special cable for this?
    When i try to use the svhs cable the screen is in black and white. Do i need to change any settings to rectify this?
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks in advance.

    Why to HDMI? Why is this HDMI port so important to you? Your notebook has S-Video port and this port is for Video transfer to external device like the TV. The same situation is on my Tecra notebook
    You have three possibilities to connect your notebook to the TV:
    - using S-Video cable
    - using chinch adapter http://www.nikomp.com.pl/opisy/AY000/AYVCW12N.jpg
    - or using SCART adaptor http://www.lenexpo-electronics.com/e_italy/i/AdattatoreScartSVHS.jpg
    It is important to enable the right port on the TV. Please note that on this way only the picture will be sent to your TV. If you want to send the sound you must use adaptor like http://ecommerce.intermediae.it/images/07628G.jpg and connect sound cable to the TV. Because of that I recommend you to use SCART adaptor and you can connect all cables there (video and audio).
    I have tested it with my BRAVIA LCD TV and it works well.

  • Windows 8.1 update only hdmi monitor detected 2 dvi monitors undetected

    Updated Windows 8 to 8.1 and have 3 monitors on Geforce 660ti video card. Since update only hdmi monitor detects. Have updated all video card drivers and clean installed multiple times but still same problem. Can unplug hdmi monitor and get nothing. Plug
    it in and that monitor works but nothing on dvi monitors.

    Hi,
    Check whether the monitor is detected by the computer according to this method:
    Go to control panel, then go to hardware and sound, click the display.
    Then click Change display settings at the left panel, just like the picture shown as below, then click Detect.
    There should be all the monitors listed, meanwhile I suggest to go to the official website of your computer motherboard producer and download and install the BIOS version accordingly.

  • 2009 Mac Pro will not boot up under Windows

    I have an Early 2009 Mac Pro system (Mac Pro 4,1) and I've had this system for 3 years already and have been working under OS X with this system ever since I purchased it.
    However, when I tried to boot off my Windows disk, something very interesting happens. The Mac Pro WILL NOT boot up off the Windows disk or a known working Windows partition if two monitors are connected. Upon holding down the option key and selecting the Windows partition, I will get a black screen on one monitor (the one connected via Mini Displayport) and the other screen receives no signal and will enter standby and the system is halted. It does not respond to keystrokes, there is no hard drive activity, no measured power increase on the UPS, no apparent network activity, nothing. The only way to exit this scenario (from what I can tell) is to power off the machine, disconnect the display on DVI, power on the machine again, select the Windows partition wait for the system to reach the login window and reconnect the DVI monitor (at which time Windows recognizes it immediately and the system works fine again).
    My question to the community is, does anybody know why this is happening and is there a known fix for this? Quite frankly, having to disconnect a monitor just to restart is very tedious and frustrating. 
    I have two Samsung P2350 monitors attached to an ATI Radeon HD 4870 (512MB, from Apple). One is monitor is connected via directly DVI and the other is using a Mini Displayport to DVI adapter. Both monitors work fine under OS X with no issue. At first, I thought that this may be a driver issue on the Windows side and after installing all the latest updates and drivers the issue is still apparent. From what I can tell, this doesn't seem like a software issue but rather a firmware or EFI issue as this happens before Windows even loads.
    If anyone knows of a fix or what to do in this situation, or if you are also having this issue, I would love to hear your input!
    Thank you!
    For the record, I am running all the latest software builds on the OS X side (10.7.4, not that it would really matter at this point). I have also disconnected all unnecessary equipment in a trial and error scenario but the results are still the same.
    The system passes all ASD testing.
    The full specification of the computer and all connected equipment are as follows:
    2009 Mac Pro (4,1) 8-Core
    2x Intel Xeon Nehalem 2.66GHz Quad-Core CPUs
    16GB DDR3 ECC 1066MHz RAM (Apple Branded)
    Two OWC 120GB SSDs (One for OS X, the other for Windows 7 x64) - These are in place of my optical drives.
    4x 2TB WD Black Hard drives for storage.
    Two Samsung P2350 Monitors connected via DVI. (One using a Mini Displayport to DVI adapter).

    In Windows I am using the latest (12.4) Catalyst Software Suite, 64 bit of course, downloaded directly from AMD's site after installing the drivers from Boot Camp.
    As for installing Windows I used an original (not burned) installation media (Disk is in a pristine condition). And yes, Windows is fine, the problem just seems to be getting the system to boot up Windows with that second monitor. However if the "problem monitor" is disconnected the system boots fine 100% of the time and connecting it later after booting the system will still operate properly.
    For the sake of arguement I swapped monitor cables and connected the "second" monitor to the mini displayport adapter to verify that it wasn't a cabling issue and I'm still yielding the same issues.
    As for GPU testing, I've played games (Crysis, Grand Theft Auto IV, Battlefield 3, etc.) and I've had no issues with the card or stability.
    You would think that Apple would try to find a fix for this, especially considering the caliber of this machine.

  • FIXED: MacBook Pro + DVI-to-Video Adapter + Windows

    The Apple DVI-to-Video adapter (M9267G/A) never worked properly under Windows XP on a MacBook Pro (NVIDIA 8600M GT). The s-video and composite outputs produced a very distorted image under Windows, while the image was clear under Mac OS X.
    Boot Camp 2.0 released with Leopard didn't correct this issue as the NVIDIA driver is the same as in Boot Camp 1.4 beta (ForceWare 101.34).
    However, the new NVIDIA driver (ForceWare 167.44) released by Apple DOES fix this issue:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306891
    1. Download and run the executable to extract its files.
    2. Open "setup.exe" in the expanded folder to install the driver.
    3. Connect an s-video or composite display (TV) to the DVI-to-Video Adapter and reboot.
    4. Once in Windows, right-click the Desktop and choose "NVIDIA Control Panel".
    5. Choose "Run multiple display wizard" and select "TV" (not NTSC/PAL) as the second monitor. Select other options as appropriate to you.
    You should now see your cloned/expanded Desktop on the TV.
    (Please note that there appears to be a bug in the NVIDIA Control Panel, causing its window contents to flicker rapidly and become unresponsive. Close and re-open the program if this happens.)
    Thank you Apple for addressing this for those of us still forced into doing a few things in Windows.
    -Coadey

    Thank you much for this. I have been looking for updated graphics drivers and laptopvideo2go.com has been down since I bought my new mac. Thanks!

  • What do i need to hook up 2 dvi monitors to a mac mini

    what cable do i need to hook up a second dvi monitors to a mac mini

    XLR8off wrote:
    I think I figured it out... use the HDMI to DVI (supplied) and get a Mini Display to DVI cable for the second monitor...?
    You are correct. Get the Mini Displayport to DVI adapter, in addition to using the supplied HDMI to DVI adapter.
    Mini Displayport is physically identical to the Thunderbolt, and a video signal (for one monitor) can be passed through the Thunderbolt port.
    Also note the max. resolutions under "video support" on Mini's tech specs:
    Thunderbolt port with support for up to 2560-by-1600 resolution
    HDMI port with support for up to 1920-by-1200 resolution
    That may determine which of your monitors you hook up to which port. Also don't go nuts with monitors, the mini might not be able to drive them to their max resolutions.

  • ACD as main display under Windows/BootCamp while in clamshell possible?

    Is there any way to run a BootCamp Windows XP Pro installation on an MBP using the ACD as main display while in clamshell mode? Currently the system refuses to wake up after I close the lid. I use a BT mouse/KB, but even with a USB mouse connected it wouldn't wake up. It seems like it would be possible, but I'm not sure how to go about it.

    Correct, there was no Gather Windows button.
    I do have multiple adapters, but one is an Apple adapter which is, apparently, "passive" whilst the other is active. The passive adapter never works at all under MacOS X, but I haven't tried it under Windows. The "active" adapter works under Windows, but only shows the apple bootup logo under MacOS X, and then turns the display off.
    I don't think that the mini displayport is faulty, because the second display plugged into it works perfectly through BootCamp.
    I'll try thoroughly testing out all adapters tonight, and then try a different brand of display. I've seen a lot of posts about ViewSonics being flakey under MacOS X, so it's possible it could be on the display driver side of things. Maybe ViewSonic does something screwy signal-wise in their displays, and Windows is willing to deal with it but MacOS X isn't.
    Oddly enough, the ViewSonic display I have was shipped with a single-link DVI cable, and it's always worked without a problem, even when plugged into the dual-link DVI port on the Mac Pro. So I don't believe that the display *itself* requires a complete dual-link connection to the computer.
    I have much appreciation for all the help and suggestions. Thanks again.
