Connecting a Monitor
Your computer comes with an MGA (multi-graphics adapter)
card installed. This card controls the monitor and provides the
connection needed to attach the monitor to the computer. You
can connect a monochrome or color graphics monitor to this
card.
Note
If you are using a monitor that is neither monochrome nor
color graphics (such as an EGA or VGA monitor) with your
computer, you need a compatible display adapter card to
control it. If the optional card is nut already installed in the
computer, you need to install it before you can connect the
monitor, See Chapter 5 for instructions on adding option
cards (in this case, the video card).
The procedure you use to connect your monitor to the
computer depends on the type of monitor you have. See your
monitor manual for detailed instructions, or follow these
general guidelines:
1.
Place your monitor on top of or near the computer. It is
easiest to connect the monitor cable if you are facing the
back panels of both the monitor and the computer.
2.
If necessary, connect the monitor cable to the monitor.
(Some monitors, such as the color Apex monitor, come
with permanently attached cables.)
