....continuing saga from a previous post.
I found the piece of hardware I need to use an ADC monitor with a DVI
connector. However what about drivers?
Should I just be able to pick plug and play or standard 1600x1200 LCD? Does
apple even make Windows drivers for their equipment?
Thanks.

You should be good to go, if Windows doesn't have drivers it can at
least identify the supported resolutions automatically.

If you're talking about this adapter:

You really should follow their advice:

| Other computers or video cards with a DVI connector must
| provide support for Apple ADC flat panel displays in their
| firmware or drivers. If in doubt please ask the manufacturer
| of the video card.

No, there's actually a different one that only converts ADC to DVI (no other
function). My client actually had it the whole time since he used it to hook
up two 23" Cinema HD Displays to his Power Mac G5.
Here's the device I'm referring to...
