Screen Upgrade
Morning all
I've treated my Dell D520 to a few upgrades recently ie 4gb RAM, N rated wireless card, 500gb hard drive Windows 7 Ultimate and a new CPU Intel T7600 and so far all is running sweet. I'm also waiting on a SSD too.
My question is I also bought a SXGA+ screen for it too to upgrade it from the XGA screen already in it.
When I plug it into the motherboard strange things happen lol as in it either comes on but then starts to go all misty then flashes or it just stays black. It came with it's invertor too.
The motherboard has these specs.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
