nellie2 Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 I have a new PCI GeForce 7900 GT card, one of thesehttps://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpag...ml?bfg-79gt&P=1I'm having a major colour problem, it's got two monitor slots and if I put one of the VGA adaptors in then everything is blue, if I put the other one in then everything is red. Doesn't matter which slot I put them in, is the card duff do you think or is there something in my bios that I should be tweaking.It's driving me potty by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted July 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 I've just tried it in another monitor with a different vga cable and I've got the same problemummmm, sorted. Apparently I have to plug both vga adaptors in, even though I'm not using one of them. Everything in the bios is still red but I can live with that.BTW... it doesn't say you have to do that on any of the documentation, it was just a trial and error thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 Its often worth asking in the Novatech Forum (if you've bought the items from them)http://forum.novatech.co.uk/index.php?Their tech support monitor it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason.b.c Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 :P Hey Nellie.? You did make sure to un-install the onboard graphics drivers first.? , Right..??A friend of mine and I tried to install a card like that in his computer and ran into similar problems like you're having.. ;) We got it installed and playing games on his computer kicks but now..! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie2 Posted July 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 I was about to call Novatechs tech support but everything is fine now... I swapped the dongles around and now I have no colour problems, apart from the fact that I had to re-callibrate my monitor.Jason... it was a totally new build, no previous drivers and no onboard graphics. But thanks for the tip and of course if I was replacing the graphics card then yes, I would have had to scrub out my previous drivers.
