Hi and sorry for the noob question.

This was my first hackintosh and I followed Gordo74's via the xMove method.

Lion is fully installed and updated to 10.7.2, however, my second monitor is not being detected properly.

I am using a Gigabyte GV-R6870OC-1GD with two Dell UltraSharp U2711's.

Both displays are connected to the two DVI ports on the video card via the included DVI Dual Link cables from the monitors. I understand that one DVI port on the video card is DVI-D and one is DVI-I.

During bootup, both monitors will mirror the display, but when the OS is loaded only the monitor connected to the DVI port next to the HDMI port is working. The second display says that there is no signal detected.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for all the help.
 
Dude, do a little searching of the board.

There are thousands of posts about this issue and how to fix it.
 
Got it working by following this guide.

Now my resolutions are different.

Thanks for the suggestions though.
