Setting Up Your Inspiron Desktop

Connect the Display

If you purchased the optional discrete graphics card, connect the display using the connector on the discrete graphics card. Otherwise, connect the display using either the integrated VGA or HDMI connector.

NOTE: The integrated VGA and HDMI connectors are disabled if your computer has a discrete graphics card.

Use the appropriate cable based on the connectors available on your computer and display. You may need to use an appropriate adapter (DVI-to-VGA adapter or HDMI-to-DVI adapter) to connect your display to the discrete graphics card if the connector on your display and the discrete graphics card is different.

You can purchase the DVI-to-VGA adapter, HDMI-to-DVI adapter, and additional HDMI or DVI cables at www.dell.com.

NOTE: When connecting to a single display, connect the display to ONLY ONE of the connectors on your computer.

NOTE: Your computer supports the Intel multiple monitor feature (disabled by default). This

feature allows you to connect your computer to more than one monitor simultaneously. To enable this feature, enter the system setup (BIOS) utility and set the Intel Multiple Monitor Feature to Auto in the Advanced Graphic Configuration section.
