LG W2261vp-pf Monitor: DVI Connection Issue with Gigabyte Geforce 7600 GS Card - DVI Saving Mode

Hello,

When you connect the LG W2261vp-pf monitor on the DVI connector to the Gigabyte Geforce 7600 GS card, there is no picture. The monitor operates normally on the D-sub connector. I know that theoretically it should not be a problem, but here, there is some conflict with the DVI connector, because after connecting the monitor goes into the "standby" mode and the message DVI saving mod appears.

The graphics card has a DVI-I connector (the graphic manual does not state whether it is a single or dual link version, however, the adapter has been supplied with the DVI-I Single Link 18 + 5 version). Nevertheless, the DVI-I Dual Link version (at least physically) would fit into the plug on the card.

I got a DVI-D cable for the monitor (single link version 18 + 1) but after carefully looking at the connector on the monitor, there could also be a DVI-D Dual Link (24 + 1) plug.

After the preliminary recognition of the market, I found few for different DVI versions.
Can the problem be caused by the lack of an adapter? And if so, which version should you choose?
Or maybe the reason lies somewhere else?

It is possible that this is a problem with the monitor itself. I would advise first to check it under another computer equipped with DVI, if it does not work, it will be sent to RAGZa. Unfortunately, sometimes LG can do something wrong. More than once it happened that in different models simply DVI did not work when the equipment came out of the factory. Sure it is a new monitor, immediately check if you do not have bad pixels, they will immediately replace it with a new one. greetings

If anyone had any doubts about connecting different versions of DVI connectors in the future, then probably he will need a statement in this table

Coming back to the merits of the case - The graphics have a damaged DVI output (no signal even on the adapter attached to the card: DVI -> D-sub).

Thread for archiving.
