VGA

The system board can only be used with an analog video monitor. Connect the monitor’s 15-pin D-shell cable connector to the VGA port (Blue) at location CN6. If your monitor supports analog video but does not have a 15-pin D-shell connector, see your monitor dealer for the adapter or optional cable. After you plug the monitor cable into the VGA port, gently tighten the cable screws to hold the connector in place. Some monitors have a switch that chooses between analog and TTL (or digital) operation. If your monitor has such a switch, set it for analog.

BIOS Setting

Configure the onboard VGA in the Advanced Chipset Features submenu of the BIOS. Refer to chapter 3 for more information.

Driver Installation

Install the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver contained in the provided CD. Refer to chapter 4 for more information.
