Connecting a Monitor

The way you connect your monitor to the computer depends

on the type of monitor you have. If you have a VGA monitor

(or a multi-frequency monitor with an analog connector),

you can connect it to the computer’s built-in VGA port. See

“Using the VGA Interface” below. If you have any other type

of monitor, see “Using a Display Adapter Card” on page 1-7.

Using the VGA Interface

Follow these steps to connect your VGA monitor to the VGA

port on the computer:

1. Make sure your monitor is turned off.

2. Place your monitor on top of or near the computer. For

easy access, turn the monitor and computer around so

the backs of both components are facing you.

3.

If necessary, connect the monitor cable to the monitor.

(Your monitor may have a permanently attached cable.)
