• This motherboard comes with dual-VGA outputs that features different
displays on 2 monitors at the same time if you connect 2 monitors to both
the onboard VGA and HDMI ports.
• With the bundled HDMI-to-DVI conversion adapter, this motherboard can
also support DVI output.
• Due to the Intel ® VGA driver issue, display setting menu will show some
resolution values that monitor does not support. When you choose the
resolution setting that monitor does not support, this would lead to monitor
black out. You can just wait 15 seconds for the system to return to the
original setting or restart system and press F8 to enter safe mode. While in
safe mode, change the display setting to 800x600, then restart the system
and adjust the right setting for your monitor.
