If you follow the cable from the monitor the back of the computer that
one is your vga graphics card (AGP)the one that has the breakout box and
the firewire is the matrox RT100 (PCI). Unless you are deeply into games
a new vga graphics card is not expensive.
lee,
very thorough reply-thanks! so from what you say- it may not be the
matrox card that died- it could only be the video card- which would be
the best possible situation, since we wouldn't have to replace the
rtx100, just the separate "video card"? that is good news.so i'll need
to look inside & there should be 2 separate "cards", correct? i'm
assuming the matrox card will have a logo or some kind of branding to
identify it. will they both be connected to the motherboard in the same
area? i'm also assuming the alienware does not have on-board video-so
swapping a vid card should be real easy. i feel so much better now-as
long as i'm understanding you correctly- am i?
thanks as usual....Adriane
