The monitor SHOULD come with a standard d-sub cable and if MAY come with a DVI cable if it has the capability. If it doesn't they are cheap ba$%^*ds.:mad:
So you should just be able to connect the d-sub to you PC and away you go!:j
If you want to use DVI (which is better) your graphics card has to have DVI out, unlikely on older machines.0
