Using a Display Adapter Card
If you are using a non-VGA monitor, you’ll need to install a
display adapter (video) card in one of the computer’s option
slots before you can connect the monitor. (Your dealer may have
already installed the video card for you.)
If the video card has not yet been installed, you’ll need to follow
the instructions in Chapter 5 to install an option card. But first,
check the following table to make sure your display adapter card
and monitor are properly matched.
