bilabs BL25C90T Autosync monitor and ArcadeVGA Help

[Pakled]

Hello all,
I am in desperate need of some help. I have a bilabs BL25C90T Autosync monitor and an ArcadeVGA 5000 video card. I got the card installed with no problem into a Dell Optiplex 745 running Windows 7. For some reason, whenever I connect the VGA cable to the Monitor and the ArcadeVGA 5000 I get a black screen on both monitors (my desktop monitor is hooked up via HDMI through the ArcadeVGA 5000. I thought I would be able to have both connected at the same time but I must be doing something wrong. I need to get this fixed soon as I have an arcade challenge with a friend of mine in mid June that I need to practice for. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Pakled

If you have your drivers installed correctly and you have set the multiple display options to "extend" the desktop (not duplicate), then you should get an image straight away on both monitors.

If it was a resolution problem, you would get a flickering screen, not no screen. If you have the 75ohm / 1kohm switch set wrong, then perhaps your image is too dark to see. Try adjusting the contract and brightness pots to full on the remote board to see if you get an image.

The most likely cause of your set-up not working are: driver not properly installed, broken arcade VGA card, broken VGA cable or broken monitor. I have the same hardware and it is pretty much plug in and play once the arcade VGA drivers are installed (this can be annoyingly problematic sometimes).

Start by testing your components one by one with other hardware.
