HP S2031 Monitor Compatibility

Hello,
I have a HP S2031 monitor and I am looking to upgrade the old desktop pc. There is one that I am looking at that has a GeForce GTX 750 graphics card. The information on the card itself when I went to the NVIDIA site states "NVIDIA G-SYNC requires a NVIDIA G-SYNC-ready monitor. Applicable for DisplayPort-enabled graphics cards."
How can I find out if this monitor will in fact work with this graphics card?
If it won't the other pc I was looking at does not state anything regarding a specific requirement. That one has the NVIDIA GT720 graphics card in it.
How do I make sure that the computer I am going to get will be compatible with this monitor?
Thanks so Very Much

It does not look like your monitor will support G-SYNC. Here is a recent article from Nvidia that has a list of supported monitors.
The Nvidia GT720 looks to be compatible with your monitor. The product specs are here.

Monitor compatibility

Good morning. Can anyone point me to a link on Apple's site for Mac mini monitor compatibility? I'm considering purchasing an Intel Mac mini because I have a monitor that is large and a little old but excellent. It's the ViewSonic CRT PS790 with a 15 pin mini Dhub VGA BNC connector. Will the DVI to ADC adapter work with this monitor?
Thank you.

the 1.83 intel mini nicely handles my 22" Viewsonic LCD at 1650x1050.
I cannot imagine that it could not handle an older CRT at up to 1600x1200--though that might be high for that monitor, that's what my G3 can handle on an old "Sylvania" 19"although I usuall;y use 1024x968 simply so i can see what's being displayed<G>)
Push come to shove, Costco has 19" viewsonic LCD for less than $200

Sceptre monitor compatibility

I have been using my 19" Sceptre Monitor (X19GV-HDTV) off my MBP for a year and it works perfectly. I have since have tried to get it to work with two Mac Mini's, a 2012 model, and a 2010 model, and the monitor gives me the message "Unsupported Mode", after using every adapter and cable, i contacted Sceptre tec support, and now they are suggesting I get from Apple "Monitor Compatibility". Does anyone know where i can find this?

Hi Paul,
Both VGA & HDMI don't work?
Could the Mini's have been set to a higher resolution before attaching this Monitor?
If so try booting up holding the SHIFT key when it's connected.

Wierd monitor compatibility problem

Hi all,
Got a wierd monitor compatibility problem. G3 works fine on a sony 21" CRT.
Connected it to a Daytec 15" CRT which works fine with a windows 98 PC.
With the G3 I get the apple and the spinning up logo then the screen just goes blank.
Is this monitor PC only or something? It is an old monitor but I thought any monitor should work
if the vga connector fits?

So you are using this directly plugged into the stock Display card in a Blue & White G3 with NO adapter?
The Mac is probably still set for a higher resolution that the SONY can do, and has not noticed the display has changed.
Video pros says that Video can be plugged and unplugged all day long with no bad effects. If your old display is still around, try setting it to 640 by 480, save changes, and swap the other one in "live" at that resolution.
Other tricks:
Reset the PRAM. This will send you back to a default setting while booting up, but may change when the system becomes active.
Boot from a CD. This ignores the settings on your Hard drive, and boots to a very simple resolution like 640 by 480 to ensure that Most Macs can start up with it.

Hp s2031 monitor will not receive premium channels from cable tv, due to hdcp. what to do?

I am moving to a building with only cable tv reception. I plan on ditching an old, huge (not flat screen) tv and will use my hp s2031 monitor with a tv tuner that will receive from a cable connection. I will gladly pay for premium channels like hbo, starz, etc., but my hp s2031 monitor has HDCP, which apparently will block premium channels. Am I incorrect? Surely hp has a fix for people who are willing to pay for content. I cannot afford a new monitor, and I do not want to lug my current giant to the new location. The screen on my laptop is much smaller.
This question was solved.

You are incorrect. HDCP (high definition content protect) prevents HD content from being sent over analog signaling. Since your HP s2031 monitor has both VGA (analog) and DVI-D (digital) inputs, you will need to use the DVI-D input to watch HD content. Your cable box will most likely have a HDMI output. To use this with your monitor will require a HDMI-to-DVI cable.

Monitor Compatibility Question

I plan on purchasing a Mac Pro with the Radeon X1900 XT card in the near future. I have been shopping around for a good monitor, and the Dell UltraSharp 2407WFP (found here: http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku= 320-4335) caught my eye. However, at the bottom of the tech specs, it lists only PC under "Compatibility." I know of other people who have used Dell monitors for their Macs, and this monitor does have DVI, so I don't see why it would not be compatible with the Mac Pro. Does anyone know definitively whether or not this monitor would work?

Hello,
You should be just fine. The majority of monitors are listed as compatible with PC's only. The simple reason is that the manufacturers don't care to test them with Macs and have all their resources devoted to supporting what they know.
If they mentioned that it would work with a Mac, then they would be stuck trying to answer your questions on the phone if you needed help. Since they don't use Macs, and don't maintain a staff of Mac trained people, it is easier to just omit official support. That way they can just tell you that they don't support Macs and hang-up the phone.
I've been using PC monitors with my Macs since before Apple even supported PC monitors at all (you used to have to buy monitors with Apple specific cables). I would just use an adapter to convert the PC connector to connect to the Mac video port.
In all my years, I've never found a PC monitor that would not work with my Mac. And, that still holds true today. I've used several low-end monitors with my current machines, and all work fine.
I've even got a bargain basement DVI monitor connected right-now, and it works perfectly.
Basically, if you want official support and a guarantee, then buy a monitor that specifically lists Mac compatibility.
But, if you are willing to accept that their phone support will avoid helping you, then go with any brand you like.
Understand that Dell is primarily interested in selling and supporting Dell computers. They have no interest in fielding calls from Mac users because they are not going to be familiar with OS X. Naturally, they will list PC compatibility because they know Windows very well.
But, you should also understand that the only difference between an Intel-based Mac and an Windows PC, is that the Intel-based Mac can also run OS X. Otherwise, they are just different brands of computers that use pretty much the same hardware.
I hope this helps.

HP S2031 MONITOR

THE MONITOR REFLECTS THAT THE CURRENT RESOLUTION IS 1440 X 900, HOWEVER, I HAVE REPEATEDLY SET THE RESOLUTION AT 1600 X 900 ON MY DESKTOP. HP SLIMLINE S7600E XP SP3. THE RESOLUTION AT 1440 X 900 IS BLURRED AND SEEMS TO BE THE BEST I CAN SECURE ... WONDERING IF THERE IS ANYTHING MORE I CAN DO/UPDATE/DOWNLAND TO GET MONITOR'S NATIVE RESOLUTION TO ACTUALLY WORK.
ANY AND ALL INPUT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

According to the specifications, the monitor should support 1600 x 900.
Does the Slimline recognize the monitor as an HP S2031 or a generic PnP monitor?
Does installing this driver help?
I received twenty-five different results for S7600E on HP's site. What is the product number?
NOTE: Do NOT provide the serial number.
Have you updated the slimline's video card drivers at all?

Monitor compatability g3 266 mt

I need to buy a new monitor for my g3 266 mt. I'm running os 8.6. How do I find monitors that are compatable with this older model? What do Iook for, and what do I say to a sales person?

Alan,
Thanx 4 the quick response. Profiler gave no indication of video ram to the card in C1 and it only shows 640 x 480 @ millions, 2 meg to the primary card in slot P1 (or was that F1?). I do not mind the lower resolution for some tasks but It seems to me that the Sony Trinitron monitor should be multi sync.
"leaves the extra ones hanging in mid-air" is what I was thinking but had not checked the glossary yet. I am so old school that I still work with the nubus cards in post Mac II machines Grant refers to frequently. I can now afford my first dream machine, a IIci with a portrait monitor connected to the onboard video and a nubus color card for a color monitor on the side. Hot stuff and $10,000 in 1988! lol
I still use a Quad 700 with a nubus video card, and a 20" super sharp B&W monitor for drafting real estate documents and deeds as my primary work machine. That setup with Filemaker Pro 2.1 has earned me more money than any newer machine! Nothing beets video real estate.
Time for me to update to PCI. I remember when Psyko had the only PCI computer in the house!
Jim
Weather is too nice today to spend more research time indoors after yesterday's snow. Other cards and other questions will have to wait. Thanx again.

X1 and USB monitor compatibility

Hello! I can't connect Thinkpad X1 (1294-2NG) to a monitor L2230XWa (5453-HB1) via USB interface. It does not matter I use USB2.0 or USB3.0. Any time when Windows 7(64bit) starts to recognize a monitor it reports a signal lost and computer hangs with fan running on high speed. Does anybody know is this configuration compatible at all?

hey Atterdag,
with regards to this, could you uninstall the current display drivers for your X1 then plugin the L2230 .
Let windows install its generic drivers and then try the monitor again. If it works, go to http://support.lenovo.com and reinstall the display driver of yout X1.

Apple MiniDisplayPort to DVI-D 2560x1600 Monitor Compatibility

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.

Not that I have seen. My new WS monitor came with the vga cable and also a DVI cable. So I didn't have to buy anything extra to have DVI out. I could choose whichever one I wanted.

A1081 Cinema Display LCD Monitor compatibility

I am about to buy a reconditioned A1081 Cinema Display LCD Monitor 20"? But i need to know if it will work with my MacBook Pro 10.5.8 and my ipad 2? As i am buying it to use at an exhibition. iIf so what adaptor will i need to hook both of these up? Thank you in advance.

Are you sure the monitor is set to receive input over the VGA input? Have you tried the DVI input on the monitor? You may have better luck with DVI.

Bootcamp mini-DVI second monitor compatibility?

Hi, I am planning to buying an iMac 20-inch, 2.4GHz (Intel). I want to attach another 20-inch monitor via the mini-DVI port. This should be no problem as long as I stay in Max OSX (Leopard).
BUT my question for help is if I (need to) boot up in Windows, can I access both monitors through the mini-DVI out-port and Bootcamp? Has anyone tried? I want to run Windows and use both monitors... Any limits to what I can do? (resolution and such)
Thanks, hope you understand my question...
/P

BUMP! I'm having an issue with this also. Just installed bootcamp 2.1 with XP SP3 and I can't get anything to display on my second monitor (Mini-DVI to HDMI). It just stays blank.
Windows recognizes it in display settings but no matter what I do it stays blank. Kind of a bummer for not being able to watch the Celtics playoffs streaming...
Anyways.. any help would be appreciated.

Macbook Pro - VGA monitor compatibility?

Hi there,
I just bought a new MacBook Pro i5 to return to the Apple fold after many years of being forced to wander the Windows desert (with Linux oasis stops along the way) and I'm having a problem with external displays. I bought a Thunderbolt-VGA adapter and have an older VGA LCD monitor (NEC Multisync 1850e) that I'd like to use for an extended desktop. I also can borrow my wife's 21" Dell LCD display for testing. Here's what happens with BOTH monitors and both video cables regardless of the combination. I hook either one of them up to the Thunderbolt port via the adapter and both monitors go into powersave mode, as if they are not connected to anything. The Mac does NOT detect either of them, no matter what I do, reboot the Mac with the monitors connected, or connect the monitors after startup, no additional displays ever appear in the Display utility. And of course, both monitors work fine on both Windows machines that we have in the house. I have been unable to find a list of Thunderbolt compatible displays and wonder if these monitors are just too old for some reason (~5 yrs), but then SVGA is SVGA as a video format n'est pas? And yes, I have the latest software updates on 10.7.2 which included a Thunderbolt SW update that didn't help.
Any suggestions besides going to the Apple store and getting another Thunderbolt-VGA adapter which I'm going to do now?
TIA,
dr.odd

Is this a REAL Apple TB/Mini Displayport adapter?
I tried one of the aftermarket adapters, $7.00 cheaper, and it didn't work, Nothing/Nada.
Took it back and bought the Apple adapters, yes both VGA & DVI, and they both worked first time.
If you have REAL Apple adapter/s try going into Display properties and Detect Displays. Sorry I'm not at my Mac right now so I can't give youy detailed instructions but just start clicking on all options.
Funny part is MBPs, IMHO, don't handle external monitors well. When I connected my old work CRT monitor it detected it but could not get the resolution correct, at first. then there is no way to turn off the internal display without closing the lid, putting it into Clam Shell mode, but to do that you need to have a external keyboard, a mouse and the AC power connected.
Good Luck

Mac Pro and monitor compatibility

Hi
Just ordered a new Mac Pro (ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB), couldn't afford an apple display.
I'm looking to take advantage of the dual monitor option.
Can anyone tell me whether I need an adapter to connect the following monitors? Or even if the following monitors will work with the NEW Mac Pro?
Main monitor - Samsung T220 22" TFT Monitor 1680x1050 20,000:1 2ms VGA/DVI.
Secondary monitor - Dell E151FPp 15" VGA.

Be careful about mixing the 4870 with third party monitors. Make sure to test it out thoroughly before you return period is up. There have been display issues with the 4870 and any third party monitors. It is not guaranteed, however quite common.
Check for mouse jumping, display anomalies, etc. The monitors listed should work however, it seems you need two adapters:
This one should be included with your mac pro:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/M8754G/A?mco=NDcyMDY3OA
It depends on which monitors you want to hook up, but there are also these adapters:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/A?mco=NDcwMjAzMA
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB570Z/A?mco=NDY5Nzg0OQ
You could just hook your samsung DVI to DVI, then use the MDP to VGA for the Dell, however make sure to read the reviews carefully, as MDP to VGA (and MDP to DVI for that matter) hasn't had a really great track record according to a lot of people.
