If it has a a DVI connector you can do away with the converter thingie and just get a DVI to DVI cable. You can get them on ebay for <$3 shipped. Best Buy probably has a fairly inexpensive one for around $9 or so. What model Samsung monitor, we'll check the specs to see if it has a DVI connector, or you can post a pic of the ports on the bottom of the monitor if you get a chance. _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Call the Doctor
