Using the Alternate VGA interface
Your computer includes an alternate VGA interface (feature
connector) on the main system board. This connector allows
you to install a high-resolution graphics adapter card in one of
the computer's option slots and still access the standard VGA
signals provided by your system circuitry.
Typically, high-resolution graphics adapter cards increase the
graphics processing performance of your VGA monitor and
provide resolutions of 1280 x 1024 or greater. They are useful
for high-end graphics applications such as AutoCAD
Windows.
To connect the graphics adapter card interface to the alternate
VGA interface on your main system board, you must have a
VGA feature cable. Follow these steps:
1. If you have not already done so, follow the instructions on
page 2-14 ("Installing an Option Card") to install the
graphics adapter card in your computer.
