dual screen monitor problems

hi there
i am trying to set up a dual screen monitor setup 2 19 inch monitors
now i am having some trouble i connected them both to my gfx card and 1 works and the other keeps saying no video input
i switched the cables and same story only on different monitors
so i tryed threw windows display managment but i wont find the other monitor only detects 1
also on the amd control center it just detects 1 so what can i do i updated all drivers
its a amd readon 6800 series and both connected threw dvi on windows 7 any1 has a option thanks
Answer #1
The 6800 series has a DVI-D port and a DVI-I. You have to run the vga connector on the DVI-I port with an adapter and the other monitor has to be run on the DVI cable. The reason: the gpu can only output in VGA through one port.
