    Re: Projector Help !! 8800 gtx

    Hi Ken

    I tried that already and still not working. I have a older machine with a ati card and dvi out and when i use the adaptor it works, it just seems to be this card i would even consider buying a new projector but i wouldnt know if it would work either. I have just lost all confidence with nvidia im just stuck.

    Thanks

    a fedup jonnydaz

    Re: Projector Help !! 8800 gtx

    Before I installed the latest video drivers for my 8800gtx and 8600gt cards I saved the settings. After installing the new drivers I reloaded the settings and then I got a black and white main screen and nothing on the projector and the other two screens. Drivers reinstall and new settings solved the problem.

    Re: Projector Help !! 8800 gtx

    Hi jonnydaz53,

    Just a suggestion, but have you tried running the graphics card at the same native resolution as the projector (800x600)??

    The projector is pretty low res, so if you are/were running a higher resolution monitor (say 1920x1080) than the max input of the projector (1280x1024), then it won't pick up the signal.

    If you can, I would wind back the resolution on the gfx card (800x600) and try connecting via VGA cable to a monitor - check the signal - if that works, then try the projector.

    Hope it offers another option to check.
