[QUOTE="chscag, post: 989228, member: 46727"] To Lucid: Are you hooking the Samsung up after the MacBook powers up or is it already attached when you turn everything on? (It should already be attached.) The Samsung SyncMaster series of monitors also have an input for VGA (analog). You might try using a VGA adapter and cable from your MacBook to see if that will work. I have my SyncMaster connected via DVI (same as you) and it works fine. Also check the menu setup for your SyncMaster... make sure you have it set correctly. I know that if I change my menu setup from auto detect to DVI only, sometimes my SyncMaster will not work. You should have your input menu set to "auto". Regards. [/QUOTE]
