Is there any difference in the way a Mac Mini G4 1.42 connects to an Apple Studio Display and a Mac Mini G4 1.5?
I'm using with my G4 1.42 a DVI to ADC Adapter to connect the monitor and then a DVI cable from the adapter to the cpu; this wroks just fine.
The mistery is that I just bought a Mac Mini G4 but this time the 1.5 silent update with 64Mb VRAM, and when using the same monitor setup, the monitor doesn't turn on.
I tried the "new" Mac Mni G5 with another DVI Montitor (Sharp) using a DVI cable directly, without going through the DVI to ADC Adapter, and to my surprise it works fine.
Do thsi two revs of G$ CPU connect in a different way? What do I need to continue using my Apple Studio Dsiplay with the G4 1.5?
