Using the loopback cable
Your PC Compatibility Card came with a loopback cable. It has three
connectors: middle, long, and short. No matter how you connect your
monitor(s), these connectors always attach to the same ports:
m The middle connector attaches to the port on your PC Compatibility Card;
this is the port that lets you see the PC environment.
m The long connector attaches to either your computer’s built-in monitor
port, or to a video card (you may leave this end disconnected if you are
using two monitors).
m The short connector attaches to your monitor cable.
IMPORTANT
A previous product, the DOS Compatibility Card, came with a
different loopback cable that has four connectors on it instead of three. That
cable does not work with your PC Compatibility Card.
