With my new computer I received two cables. One is the regular vga cable (blue w\thumb screws), the other is a white cable for dvi. Is there a difference between the two, what are they, and which is better to uses. Thanks again for the help. I starting to like this vista OS.

Hi Jimbo,

DVI would be the best option between the two. It is a pure digital connection. VGA 
is a older analog connection. The main difference is that DVI has much better quality. 

You can read about it here, and if you search Google using "DVI vs VGA" you will 
get a ton more information on it if you want to read more on it.

Hope this helps,

There are no dumb questions, just the people that do not ask them.
