i have a Asus m4a88t-m Motherboard with one D-sub , DVI and a HDMI out on it ..
i have a LG monitor already connected to D-sub port , well now i want to also connect my spare 15" zebby monitor via DVI ( it doesnt have HDMI so DVI is the best bet) ,
i've got a D-sub cable and Tried two Different DVI to D-sub Adapters but cudnt get The second monitor running ..
i've heard about digital to analogue signals etc (cudnt understand a thing abt it).. So what do i need to get my dual monitor setup up and running ..
which DVI to D-sub (VGA) adapter should i buy to make the setup work .. please help
and its a 24+1 DVI on my board
