I think monitors with resolution that high usually require a DVI-D |
| 8 |
dual link connection. Ensure your new computer supports that. If it's |
| 9 |
a newer laptop, it might not have DVI at all, but DisplayPort or HDMI |
| 10 |
instead. There are DisplayPort and HDMI to DVI adapters available, |
| 11 |
though I'm not familiar enough with the specifics to say which would |
| 12 |
be compatible with your monitor. |
