CAUSE

This issue occurs because these video adapters do not have a Windows 2000 compatible driver.

Back to the top

The Accel Graphics Eclipse video adapter uses the Aclps.sys driver. This driver only provides standard display adapter (VGA) support when used in a Windows 2000-based computer. VGA does not support Display Data Channel (DDC), which enables monitor and display detection.
