I bought a 19" lcd with a dvi output but it doesn't work with my 12" powerbook. I have the last 12" powerbook revision with a superdrive so shouldnt it not have a problem connecting? I tried connecting with the regular monitor output and it works fine but it just doesnt detect it when i use the dvi wires. Can someone please help.

Does the screen flash or do anything when you attach the external display? Best case: simply replace the mini-DVI to DVI dongle. Worst case: something wrong with the DVI connection on your Powerbook or on the display. Try the display with another computer to see if it even works.
