Section Two: Getting Started

Please examine the Basic VGA board to see if there is any damage
which may have occurred during shipment. If the board appears
damaged, please contact the retailer from whom the Basic VGA was
purchased.

2.1 Installation Requirements

This manual is designed to answer questions you might have concerning
the installation and use of the Basic VGA, as well as provide
descriptions of legitimate system configurations. Please take a few
moments to read through this manual before installing your Basic VGA.

2.2 Monitor Compatibility

VGA Color/Monochrome

The Basic VGA board is compatible with these monitors.

Multiple Frequency Monitors

The Basic VGA board is compatible with these monitors, provided the
proper 15-pin cable adapter is used with the monitor, and the monitor is
set to analog.

IMPORTANT: The Basic VGA uses the same 15-pin (DB15) cable
available from monitor manufacturers to interface with the IBM
PS/2 computers. Using an incorrect cable may result in damage to
the monitor and/or adapter.
