I have a Dell 15Z. GT525M Video card. Updated Driver via NVIDIA.
Problem is I just purchased a Yamasaki Catleap Q270 monitor. It is a (2560x1440) monitor with only a Dual DVI-D out.
15Z only has HDMI and a Mini Display Port.
I got a Active Dual DVI-D to Mini Display Port Active Adapter(Linked Below). http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042802&p_id=6904&seq=1&format=2
The Setup works when i plug it into my Macbook air 13.3. However when I plug it into my 15Z it doesn't work. Tried everything I can thank of. Window control P. FN and F1. It just doesn't work.
I believe the issue lies in the Mini Display Port but i can't be sure. No matter what i do, the Mini Display Port doesn't get recognized.
Spent 3 hours on the phone with the XPS Tech team. They simply said it was not compatible....
Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
