Hey Guys!

I was wondering, is it possible to run one moniter on my iMac.

What I would like is 1 moniter and my iMac connected together to create Dual Moniters?

Thanks,

WizzKid

You need an Apple Mini-DVI to VGA converter - check out their website under Cables, I have one and it works perfectly.

well ya could have at least asked how its done in your OP if thats what you were really wantin ta know. also its different on different machines. older imacs dont screen span without a hack... some have mini-dvi some have mini-vga. did you even post the specs of the machine you were tryin ta do this on? answer: no.

I think you'll want this one for an iMac, iMacs have a mini-DVI connector which doesn't have the screws on each side. The iMac cable suits iMacs and MacBooks as I use my cable on both of them.

Fallooza, your positive rep doesn't suit your attitude. Just sayin'...
