Thanks in advance!!

thanks for the reply so fast!

nothings silly mate, im not the biggest wiz with pc's I just bought the rig aswell.

I plugged the monitor in using the blue cable the monitor came with, with the 2 blue nobs on the side and you plug and screw it in.....if you can understand ?

should I try using a HDMI cable from the GPU to Monitor?....i will try that tonight asap.

as for the BIOS you mentioned.....I will have to look it up on google lol I dont know what it is...

Thank you,

All good dude :) lemme take a pic of something though, this is just an example pc i have here at work, nothing special:

Have you plugged it into the top circle, or the plugs on the bottom one? Also yeah, you'd be using the DSUB connection, that's the old analogue signal. In the picture I've posted, in the bottom circle, the white connection is DVI; MUCH better picture quality.

Ah this was easily sorted,

The bottom pic is of a dedicated graphics solution, that's where you want to plug your monitor into, preferably using the white cable as cpd mentioned It's DVI (Digital Video Interface)

You might get what's called Overscan on your screen; basically what happens is what's displaying on the screen is a little smaller; same resolution, but it leaves a black border around the outside. That's what I was getting anyway; gave me the shits pretty hard. They're both digital connections, so they'll both be perfectly fine. What size monitor do you have, if you don't mind me asking? Anything that's not super-high-res like the new Dell/Apple 27" screens, DVI is fine (also with Dual-Link DVI when you hit that size, or Thunderbolt for those of us using the Apple screen on Macbook Airs ;) )

TL;DR: HDMI = fine but overscan issues, DVI = winner

Isn't hdmi the same as dvi apart from the ability to also have audio?

Also if you we're to play 3D, wouldn't it run through the one hdmi where as you'd need two connections via dvi??

Point is, if you have hdmi, use that connection. The overscan issue is a weird one, though.

Apparently not; I've come across it a few times in fixing machines. A few different cards too; ATi 4870, nVidia 560Ti, and I can't quite remember what the other one was (about 3 years ago now though).

Either way: Try HDMI, and if it has issues, go DVI :) Cables are cheap enough, anyway. And worst case, if HDMI overscans, then you've got a spare HDMI cable! Whoo!

I just remembered I had a similar issue with my TV via HDMI.

When set to "Scan" it had a black border around the image, but after changing it to "16:9", the black border was gone.

Perhaps need to reset the monitor settings if you also have such an issue...

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
