About this tag
The DMS-59 connector is a 59-pin dual-monitor solution found on some Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS graphics cards. It uses a DMS-59 to dual VGA adapter cable to support two displays. Users have reported that after updating to Nvidia driver version 295.73 (February 2012) or later, the second monitor loses signal after startup, while older drivers such as 285.62 (October 2011) and earlier work correctly for dual display. The issue appears to be driver-related, as the same card with standard VGA and DVI outputs works fine. Troubleshooting typically involves reverting to an older driver version.
