Using a Mac monitor with a PC
 

I got this monitor but I never use the machine itself. Someone informed me that it is possible to use this monitor on a PC.

Anyone ever done? What did you use? I cant find shit online.

I found this.

I suggest doing what they told that guy to do. Apparently, you can get a Mac to PC monitor cable from Mac Warehouse. Guess that would be the most likely thing to work.

Yeah, for old school mac monitors. This one is DVI. Thanks though. :)

Ahh man. There's a hack for this to work, I forget what it is. Apple didn't follow the DVI standard properly so it doesn't work well with all video cards on PC, but I know it does work with some of the older NVidia GeForce cards. It SHOULD work with the new ones as well (with DVI of course) but there was SOMETHING that had to be done. I just can't remember what it is. I'd check out www.hardocp.com, www.tomshardware.com and euhhh.. well, hardocp would be your best bet. It's for hardcore PC guys and moders.

I used to work as tech support for a video card manufacturer that made some NVidia based cards so I know it should work. I've had clients send me links to sites that explain how to do it. And I know Apple messed up cause they admitted it to us.

Read your ICQ, I sent ya the link. ;>

"If you're using a PC and want to take advantage of the ADC, 3D Labs make versions of their cards with the Apple connector."

Hope this helps
