Connecting Your Monitor(s)
The RADEON 8500 provides hardware support for
one DVI-I monitor or two VGA monitors using the
DVI-I-to-VGA adapter. A TV can also be used to
expand your desktop by using the S-Video out. The
RADEON 7500 provides support for one VGA
monitor and Composite output to a TV.
Plug the monitor cable into your card (if you are
running multiple monitors, connect their cables to the
appropriate connectors), then turn on the PC and
monitor(s).
To connect a flat panel directly to your RADEON
8500, use the DVI-I connector. To connect a VGA
monitor to the DVI-I connector, use the
DVI-I-to-VGA adapter as shown below.
When you use multiple monitors with your card, one
monitor will always be Primary. Any additional
monitor(s) will be designated as Secondary.
