What model monitor? Why are you using a VGA connector? Does your monitor not have a digital input like DVI? Did you install the Windows support/driver software?

May 15, 2012 8:42 AMby MJCWEALTHMGT,Thank you so much for getting back to me. By not connecting I mean, it will not show a picture. When I right click and change the display settings, I have gone through every possible reolution setting on none of them produce a picture other than an occasiional flickering screen on the very lowest resolution setting.
The monitor model is HF 199H and it is still relatively new and in great condition.
I bought the Rocketfish connector (RF-AP307) as I was told by the Apple Techs at Best Buy that I needed the cable in order to hook up a second monitor. There's also an HDMI output from the monitor but I do not have the cable to connect to my computer.
Is there a chance that somehow bootcamp will not allow for me to extend my screen?
