    Re: 'Failed in finding proper screen mode for GR2d'

    In that picture the top connector is a VGA plug/port.

    This was the old standard.

    The bottom is a DVI which is the new interface usually with new graphics cards and new flat screen monitors.

    When you say "slot" I assume you are referring to these plugs/ports.

    If you have two and they are different then one should be DVI and the other VGA. In other words one of them should match the monitor.

    If the second port is round then it is an S-Video port for a TV.

    In my experience with Maple Story it requires an independent graphics card.

    Oh ya, does it matter if its DVI to VGA or VGA to DVI. Or is it the same actually.

    Sorry, but these terms are totally foreign to me.

    And yeah, my 'slots' meant plugs/ports. It's pretty obvious I'm not an IT person ain't it? Lol.

    Your monitor plug will be a male and your graphics card a female.

    If your monitor plug is VGA and your graphics card is DVI you need a female VGA to male DVI adapter.

    If your graphics card is DVI and your monitor is VGA this is all you need:

    You totally rock! Thank you so much!! I hope everything works when I receive the adapter.

    Really really really appreciate your help.

    However, if it doesn't work. I'll have to bug you again. Don't say you haven't been warned.

    No problem.

    By the way any local electronics store would carry such adapters as well.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Hey Jephree, received the adapter yesterday, and I'm able to logged into the game. Thanks man!

    However, it does tend to lag pretty badly. Any idea why?

    Did you install the nVidia drivers?
