9. Connect the video cable from your monitor to one of the VGA connectors on the base board or one
of the DVI connectors on the daughter card. Always connect your first or only monitor to a
connector marked "1" and then connect your second monitor (if used) to one of the connectors
marked "2".
10. If you want to attach a second monitor, connect the second monitor to either the VGA or DVI
connector marked "2". The Oxygen GVX420 card supports multi-monitor functionality on one
card. You can connect either two VGA monitors, two DFP monitors, or one VGA monitor and one
DFP monitor.
11. Plug in and start up your system, including peripherals, and log on to your operating system.

The Oxygen Product CD-ROM for the Oxygen GVX420 includes Oxygen PowerThreads video driver software,
which lets you set image quality and performance preferences for your card. It also includes the Soft Engine
AutoCAD accelerator and productivity tool package, and Colorific screen-to-print color matching software.
Installing Soft Engine on your AutoCAD equipped system will improve graphics performance by up to four
times, while Colorific painlessly ensures that what you see is what you print.
This section describes the two software installation processes for supported Windows operating systems.
