I've installed all the hardware items as indicated, including vga card and its wires - but I have no display on my monitor when I switch everything on! The bios screen does not appear!

(I held the keyboard's delete key when I switched roboard on).

Problem solved - The dc adaptor I was using was only 8.5V - not enough for roboard to power up the "extra" devices apparently.

I think the problem is "A" not "V", because I use 6V and 2A DC, and it works fine.
