Before enabling VGA mode in the configuration screen, test the adapter and
the monitor with the original vga software to make sure they are working properly.

       the normal functionality just reflash your infinity using recovery mode.
       Read "UPGRADING INFINITY" section in this text file  for instructions on
       how to enter recovery mode and reflash your infinity.
