  • Gateway 21" cinema LCD monitor and my PowerPC G4.

    My story: I just bought a Gateway 21" LCD Cinema monitor (FPD2185W) to use for both my mac(DVI) and my PC(serial).
    My problem: The native resolution is at a maximum 1280x1024 and my screen is super stretched on my MAC, but everything was fine on the PC side.
    What I need: To find a way to increase the resolution to the LCD monitors maximum size (1650x1050) on my Mac so its not stretched anymore....is there anyway I can do this? I don't see any support what so ever from Gateway, which isnt too surprising, but nothing really from any Mac sites either.

    Hi,
    I don't know which Mac model you have, look here and find your machine. When we know which it is I can make a few suggestions.

    In truth, Mac's are cake to install a video card. Remove the old, install the new - that's it. Some ATI cards can benefit from the ATI software, so follow directions if you get one.
    The downside is that there are very few new video cards available for Mac's, the prices tend to be higher than for PC's.
    When you know which Mac model you have, look at OWC's available video cards. That will give you an idea what the prices are. Of course, you can try the auction site.

  • Gateway 24"lcd with 9200 card?

    Hi Again! I bought the 24" Gateway and LOVE it!!!! It's so much easier on my eyes than my old crt was too. Tom

  • Connecting 2 LCD monitors to my Macbook?

    Hello Everyone.
    Ok, before I go poking around and stuff something up, can someone please answer my following questions. I am wanting to connect two LCD 22inch monitors to my Macbook Pro.
    1. How do I do this?
    2. Instead of buying Apple screens, are there any other good LCD monitors that will do just a good a job?
    Please help.
    Thanks....I love my MAC

    1. http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/corpo/products/home.php
    check graphic expansion modules
    2. for serious work I would strongly recommend eizo monitors. current apple displays simply cant compete with them. They are very outdated and therefore overpriced. they have poor adjusting possibilities..in both picture and stands.

  • I just bought a recertified Mac Mini, and I wonder if anyone here knows if it's possible to hook up my Mac flat screen LCD monitor to it using what adapters? I currently have a DVI to ADC adapter connected to my G4 Powermac.

    I just bought a recertified Mac Mini core duo - it's not the newer model-, and I wonder if anyone here knows if it's possible to hook up my Mac flat screen LCD monitor to it  and using what adapters? I currently have a DVI to ADC adapter connected to my G4 Powermac.
    The company I bought it from is not Apple, and I may regret that. It was in my price range, though.
    This is the first time I've used this community, and I've been a Mac owner since 2000. Thanks in advance!

  • LCD Monitor with B&W G3 Tower

    Hello, I am looking to replace my 17" Apple Studio Display CRT on my G3 B&W Tower with an LCD monitor. My questions are: 1) Will my computer (VGA port) accept any current LCD screens on the market, or do I have to stay with Apple's LCD monitors? 2) There are several Apple Studio LCD Displays offered on eBay. They mention DVI and ADC connections. How do I know which models will work with my B&W G3? Forgot to mention that I have upgraded the processor with a Sonnet G4 500Mhz. Thanks.

    Hi,
    your B&W (like mine) should be equipped with a standard VGA output on your video card, which should accept any monitor with a VGA connection.
    I tried a couple of LCD (a Samsung and a Hewlett Packard) which worked flawlessly and did not give me any problems.
    I am not sure whether you can connect any of the current generation Apple flat screens due to the different interface, but you surely can take advantage of any VGA equipped LCD.
    cheers

  • What is the best method to connect Gateway FPD2185W External Monitor

    Hello,
    I just bought a new Macbook. I would like to connect it to my larger Gateway FPD2185W external monitor. The monitor is maybe three years old, and has VGA, component, S-Video, and DVI inputs. Which type of connection would work best? I have a mini-DVI to VGA connector from Apple, but the display doesn't look the greatest. I'm still new to using the MacBook, so help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    There are some settings on the monitor that might be affecting how it looks when running from VGA. There should be a "tuning" function, also known as clock phase adjustment. There is an AUTO button located on the side of the monitor. Press it and see if it helps the picture quality. Also under the Video Adjust menu are settings for Sharpness and Noise Reduction. Those settings can often interfere with good picture quality, so you might try playing with them as well.
    Of course, you could always switch to the DVI input for the best image quality, but that would require buying another adapter from Apple and also a DVI cable if the monitor didn't already come with one.

  • Two 24" LCD Monitors with FCP / Motion

    I have a Mac Pro (early 2009) with the new ATI Radeon 4890 dual DVI video card and one Apple 24" LCD monitor. I'm using this setup for primarily FCP/Motion work. Question:
    - Can the ATI Radeon 4890 handle two 24" LCD monitors, or do I need to purchase a second video card?
    - Can FCP / Motion handle two video cards?
    Thanks!
    lance

    Can the ATI Radeon 4890 handle two 24" LCD monitors
    ABSOLUTELY. There are two monitor connections on the card. One DVI, the other the Apple connector.
    Can FCP / Motion handle two video cards?
    Yup. Most FCP workstations I have been on, and personally own, are two monitor setups. That is a fairly typical setup.

  • 32" LCD Monitor - Best Resolution???

    Hello all -
    I just bought an Olevia LT32HVE LCD monitor to use with my G5. I'm wanting to find the best resolution setting so that it won't be horizontally whacky, yet still a good amount of real estate on the screen. At the recommendation of a friend who has a 42" monitor, I downloaded Display ConfigX so that I could change the default settings. After registering and installing, I changed the resolution from 1280x1024 to 1280x720 as my friend suggested. The resolution now LOOKs OK, but it's a bit large for my taste. I'd like to get a bit more real estate on the screen by making the overall image more condensed. The LCD manual says that it's highest resolution is 1366x768, but when I tried that, the monitor blanks out (to blue) and says the rate is not supported. Probably has something to do with the refresh rate as well? I then have to hook up a second monitor just to get the large one to come back (viewing-wise).
    Any suggestions on some resolutions that this LCD monitor will be able to use? Or am I missing a key factor?
    Thanks -
    G5 Dual 2.0Gig   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I was able to get the monitor to work at 1360x768 @ 60hz, but it looked a little rough around edges. Looks better at 1280x720 in terms of clarity and sharpness. But it's still the exact same size (at least, viewing-wise) as 1280x720.
    Is there any way to get more real estate happening? Even though it's not horizontally crazy now, it's overall still very large.
    Thanks -

  • DVI.I to VGA LCD monitor

    Hi Everyone
    Is there anything to gain by using the DVI connection on my MSI FX5900XT graphics card
    to the VGA port on a  DELL 19" LCD Monitor ?
    I was just wondering as the card came with an adaptor DVI/VGA so I can use either output on the card.
    At the moment I am connected VGA to VGA
    cheers

    Apple didn't ship a 2.4GHz MacBook until February of 2008. If that's the model you have, or an earlier model, it has a mini-DVI port which would take the mini-DVI to VGA adapter. To confirm, run System Profiler, click on the Hardware heading at the very top of the left-side list, and tell us what the Model Identifier reports.
    Regards.

  • External LCD Monitor Connection - Unacceptable Quality

    Hello,
    I have recently purchased a Mac, hoping that I would be able to connect to my external LCD monitor (19" Samsung SyncMaster 920NW - only VGA connection).
    I have easily hooked up my monitor to my Mac. However, what I see is of unacceptable quality. When compared to Macbook display, the display on the external monitor is darker and the text looks horrible. I have played with few settings but nothing good.
    I have read other threads where people complain about similar things. But, I thought Samsung's monitors would be of higher quality. Mine is a relatively cheap LCD but not this cheap
    I am just willing to confirm that I am not missing anything. I simply can't believe that the display quality could be this bad. In the worst case, I will have to buy a new LCD.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hello stedman1,
    Thank you for your quick reply.
    Unfortunately, it is not running in the Mirror mode. The display with the mirror mode was even worse! But after reading the posts in the forum, I have learned how to change it to the extended display. It is better than the mirror mode, but still not good enough.
    Maybe I am making a mistake comparing the external monitor with the MacBook's monitor?? There is a huge gap between the two. It is a lot darker, and the text quality is way worse.
    Someone with a similar monitor having solved this issues?
    Thanks,
    Guven.

  • What connects do I need to hook up a 2nd LCD monitor to my p7-1380t HP computer?

    My current monitor is a Samsung Starlight LCD monitor hooked up to my p7--1380t (approx 23 inches).  I want to set up a 2nd monitor which is a DELL LCD (unable to find monitor model #).
    Can you advise me which ports to use on the back of my computer and which cable type I should get for the Dell monitor?

    Okrafarmboy, welcome to the forum.
    We don't have information on Dell monitors.  However, I believe that it will be either VGA or DVI (D or I).  It depends on the age of the monitor.

  • New LCD Monitor Blinks On and Off

    I just purchased a new 22" Visionmaster LCD monitor, connected via digital cable to my ATI Radeon 128Mb video card.
    However, it tends to switch OFF to a black screen, and after about 5 seconds it comes back on. The screen displays the word DIGITAL in the upper right hand corner.
    Why is this happening, and what can I do to avoid it?
    It doesn't seem to like using the digital cable. It works fine using the standard VGA cable, however.
    Can anyone comment on this? Is this particular card not compatible?
    Thanks!

    Hello! Look in your system prefs under the screen saver and see if a "hot corner" is set. It sounds like the mouse is trying to trigger a screen saver or the "display slep" is set to only a few seconds. I've seen this type of behavior with my Dell screen and it's something I'm triggering with the mouse. Tom
