monitor compatibility issue syncmaster
To whom it may concern,
I have the following problem with my Macbook. I used to use my Samsung Syncmaster 2243BW monitor as an extra display connected to my macbook. It used to work fine with Leopard 10.5, but since the SnowLeopard came out it doesn’t work anymore.
I used a Minidisplay port to VGA adapter to connect my monitor to the macbook, but if i change to display resolution to the native resolution (1680x 1050) the display keeps switching between analog and digital display, but doesn’t show any picture.
The problem occured first when Snow Leopard came out, and remains since than.
It seems that the problem only appears with this particular type of monitor (Samsung Syncmaster 2243BW), as I tried with a different type it worked fine.
Also, when i try to update the software to the MiniDisplay Port to VGA adapter, it does not recognise the plugged in adapter, it says that „the installer doesnt find the adapter”.
The problem still remains, and i could not find any solution on forums or discussions whatsoever, and i ve found other people with the same problem but no solution.
Please look into my problem and find a solution, since im not alone with the same issue.
I’m waiting for your answer.
Kind regards,
