- Don't have any manuals to RTFM and I know this isn't too hard for
- those well versed with MAC's and MAC/OS.
-
- I just installed System 7.0.1 (w/"tune" disk) on a MAC IIcx for
- first time. We already had a portrait monitor and display adapter
- card but also had a spare MAC color monitor and color display adapter
- card. To my understanding these can work together, so I put the color
- display adapter card in along with the portrait card, but when I boot
- ONLY the portrait monitor is active, color monitor is powered up but
- nothing appears. I selected "Monitors" under control panels and it
- seems to only see the portrait display card. I have verified several
- times the cards are in correctly, only other card in besides these
- two is a 3COM ethernet card. I did unplug the portrait display card
- and just had the brand new color card in their but got no picture
- on the color monitor. I took the cable from the color card and connected
- it to an adjacent MAC's color monitor of the same kind and got no display
- their either. This is a brand new color monitor and card. Any ideas?
-
- Thanks!
