2.5 Easy Multi Monitor Feature

This motherboard supports Multi Monitor upgrade. With the internal onboard VGA and

the external add-on PCI Express VGA card, you can easily enjoy the benefits of Multi

Monitor feature. Please refer to the following steps to set up a multi monitor

environment:

1. Install the NVIDIA

PCI Express VGA card to PCIE1 (PCIE x16 slot). Please refer

to page 17 for proper expansion card installation procedures for details.

2. Connect the D-Sub monitor cable to the VGA/D-Sub port on the I/O panel of this

motherboard. Connect another D-Sub monitor cable to the VGA/D-Sub connector of

the add-on PCI Express VGA card. Connect the DVI-D monitor cable to the

VGA/DVI-D connector of the add-on PCI Express VGA card.

3. Boot your system. Press <F2> or <Del> to enter BIOS setup. Enter “Share

Memory” option to adjust the memory capability to [16MB], [32MB], [64MB],

[128MB] or [256MB] to enable the function of onboard VGA/D-sub. Please make

sure that the value you select is less than the total capability of the system

memory. If you do not adjust the BIOS setup, the default value of “Share

Memory”, [Auto], will disable onboard VGA/D-Sub function when the add-on

VGA card is inserted to this motherboard.

4. Install the onboard VGA driver to your system. If you have installed the

onboard VGA driver already, there is no need to install it again.
