Hi!
I have Belinea 1980 S1 LCD Monitor on Sapphire Radeon x800GTO2 Dual DVI Samsung 1.6ms. I can't get digital DVI connection to work. Analog VGA connection works perfectly, but digital DVI doesn't. On DVI cable i still get blank screen and pop-up "Check cable connection". I tried both DVI and VGA cable connected at the same time. Windows XP boots normally but after i tried to change input from VGA to DVI in OSD it returned back to VGA.
I also tried different types of cables. First i got DVI-I Dual link (18+1 pin) cable and of course it wasn't working. Then i decide to change it to DVI-D Dual link (24+1 pin) cable because I have DVI-D port in my monitor and my video card. Nothing have changed.
Then I tried with different types of BIOS for my video card, because I've heard that there might be problems with modded GTO2 and DVI. First I flashed orginal Sapphire x800GTO2 BIOS from here: http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/127/images/Sapphire.X800GTO2.Samsung16.bin . So I set my card back to 12 pipelines, but it didn't helped with DVI. Then i flashed Sapphire x800XL BIOS from here: http://www.techpowerup.com/bios/Sapphire.X800GTO.256.Samsung16_050524.bin , because I've read that it has enabled dual DVI ports and 16 pipelines together. But it didn't help. Finally I got back to my previous Sapphire x800GTO2 16 pipeline modded BIOS from here: http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/127/images/Sapphire.X800GTO2_16P.Samsung16.bin .
And now I'm asking you: what else can I try?
Thx in advance!
EDIT: Sorry MY MISTAKE! I have DVI-I (24+5 pin) port in my video card, DVI-D (24+1 pin) cable and DVI-D (24+1 pin) port in monitor. But this configuration, according to this article: http://www.playtool.com/pages/dvicompat/dvi.html and others in the network, should work.
