Hi

Let me help you debug this.

First please send me the exact links of the drivers you used to install on your laptop.

Second, can you take a picture of the DVI cable you are using from the end so I can see the pins?

Third, please send me the link to the lalptop your are using (since its a GTX 280m).

Thanks.

Hi

I this your laptop online? [url="http://www.sagernotebook.com/product_customed.php?pid=171297"]http://www.sagernotebook.com/product_customed.php?pid=171297[/url]

I think the issue may be that the DVI output from the laptop is single link DVI. We require Dual-link DVI to support external displays.
