My wife got the samsung 305T 30in monitor from pokerstars a few days ago. We tried hooking it up to our computer which has a somewhat older video card radeon x300 series
http://ati.amd.com/products/radeonx300/specs.html which has a DVI port on it. It will display the command line stuff and dell splash screen but when windows loads up I just get repeated red, green, blue, white, black colors and no desktop.
The documentation says the 305T needs something called "DVI-D Dual Link" compatible video card. I did some searching around and I couldn't really figure out the difference between the different DVIs... The website above for my radeon vid card says it's DVI 1.0 compliant.
So pretty much I just need a new video card? I looked at wikipedia about DVI and it said nothing about 1.0 etc... it was all DVI-D, -A, -I etc
Thanks
