I just got a beautiful new ViewSonic VP201s LCD and I'm having trouble getting it to work with my old Radeon Mac Edition AGP card. The analog side works fine, but when I hook up the DVI side I get nothing.

I've tried switching the inputs, cycling the power on the monitor - nothing works. It's like the GPU isn't putting out a DVI signal.

I've updated the ATi drivers, I think. I'm running OS 10.3.5 and I've got the display set to 1600x1200 (the native resolution of the display). If this helps...

ROM# 113-74901-119
FCode Version: 1.75
NDRV Version: -
VRAM Size: 32MB

This isn't critical - I'm upgrading my Mac in two days! But I'd love to get DVI working to see the difference and just make sure that this display isn't hosed.

I have no other DVI-capable computers to test this with, unfortunately.

Any ideas? I've Googled for this issue and haven't found anything.
