-- I had this exact symptom when I hooked up an old VGA monitor to my IIci. The way I was able to get around it was to use an adapter between the monitor cable and the computer's monitor port. This adaptor has dip switches on it and by finally choosing the right combination (the switch combinations are marked on the reverse side of the adapter) I was able to get rid of the double functioning images. I don't know if this will help you but the problem might be in the differences in the wiring of the pins and the port. Perhaps someone else on the list can suggest a specific adapter or cable. Lots of luck dan_A -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
