So........I got this 4th monitor.....

[Mike..]

My Triple head router is running fine although I am still tweaking. I got a 4th monitor from work today. Right place and the right time to snag a 19" LCD. Anyway. I plugged it in to the triple head and got zilch. I decided to plug it in directly to one of my two cards and still no signal. I want to use the 4th monitor for instrumentation but it won't come on. Did I miss a step somewhere?

Hm. Maybe video card output is not optimized for that model LCD?
-check refresh rate, resolution, etc.

I hadn't thought to do that but I will Saturday to see what it will do. Thanks. By the way. I still get a good laugh anytime I see your avitar! Thanks for your input Rott.

Speaking of input, not to accuse you of being a total moron or anything, but if the display doesn't auto-sense the active input, you may actually have to select the one you're using. It may have been on s-vid or something in its "former life". I've seen very smart people forget to check that... LOL.

Check a USB monitor card...you can plug as many as you want...
