Multiple Displays
Connecting Your Monitor(s)
Your RADEON 9800XT provides hardware support for
one DVI-I monitor or two VGA monitors using the
supplied DVI-I-to-VGA adapter. A TV can also be used
to expand your desktop by using the S-Video out.
Plug the monitor cable into your card (
if you are
running multiple monitors, connect their cables to the
appropriate connectors),
then turn on the PC and
monitor(s)
.
To connect a flat panel
directly
to your card, use the
DVI-I connector. To connect a VGA monitor to the DVI-
I connector, plug the supplied DVI-I-to-VGA adapter
into the DVI-I connector, then plug your monitor cable
into the adapter, as shown below.
When you use multiple monitors with your card, one
monitor will always be
Primary
. Any additional
monitor(s) will be designated as
Secondary
.
