Just took delivery of a Dell UltraSharp 1905FP LCD. It works fine in VGA mode (native 1280x1024) but I can't get anything out of it plugged into DVI. I updated video drivers, got the monitor drivers installed (monitor is recognized). There's a toggle switch to change between analog and digital, but nothing comes up on digital. Here are my system details:
Dell Dimension 4100, XP Home, Geforce Ti4200, 512 MB

Any suggestions?

Frankly, I'm not sure how hung up to get on the DVI thing. VGA works and the thing is absolutely beautiful. No dead pixels, nice and bright, and BIG!!
