Dell 3007WFP Help
Hi,
I am trying to setup a Dell 3007WFP. My video card is a VisionTek x1300 PCI Express, which is Dual Link DVI Compatible. If I plug just the dell in and try to boot the computer, nothing is displayed on the screen. If I plug both the dell and another monitor in, the 2nd monitor displays fine and the dell is recognized in the display settings, yet nothing is displayed. If I unplug the dell dvi cable, it goes into a self test, displaying a red screen, blue screen, green screen, etc. This video card is a couple years old. Should I buy a different video card? If so, what would you recommend? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! |

Re: Dell 3007WFP Help
from your link:
[ QUOTE ] Display support VGA, DVI-I, TV-Out Dual Link DVI (up to 2560 x 1600 resolution) [/ QUOTE ] Wow...I'm stumped...your card *should* work unless I missed something. Have you called Dell support? Perhaps you have a bad monitor? Wouldn't hurt to ensure you have the latest drivers for your card....but that card should drive that monitor AFAIK. |

Dell Support is trying to tell me that the 3007WFP only works with these video cards:
NVIDIA® GeForce® 7900 GS NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GTX NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GX2 NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GX2 ATI™ Radeon® X1900 XTX NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GTX NVIDIA Quadro FX 3450 NVIDIA Quadro FX 3500 ATI FireGL V7200 NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 Are they liars? |

[/ QUOTE ] probably. their website says the port is " DVI-D (dual link) with HDCP "... dual link DVI is dual link DVI. The HDCP shouldn't even come into play here. |
