I just got this old gigantic 20 inch Seiko CM2050 monitor. At the back it has 4 BNC connectors (R, G, B, H/V) and a DB-15 video connector. This monitor worked great when connected to a Quadra 840, but fails to give an image on my G4 with it's ATI Rage Pro 128.
After some googling I found this page: http://www.griffintechnology.com/monitors/Seiko05.html
It says I need a Mac Sync adapter. Only this adapter is $40 + $10 shipping, while the monitor only cost me $25.
I also read there that the monitor has Sync on Green. This kinda puzzles me as there is a H/V BNC connector on the back. What is this supposed to do then?

Can anyone help me out? I'd appreciate it a lot.
