Problems with the VGA converter board

Ni Hao!
I purchased kit with the Mini2440 and VGA Conversion board since I like to see bigger things here 15 inch Samsung Optisync151 to see the Samsung S3C2440's output.
after browsing all the contents of the DVD for obvious manual i could not find any info as to how the connector is to be mated.
Also the Ebay auction did not even have the flatcable connector in its place (I thought it would be soldered somewhere benind, but that is not the case.) ;

figuring from another picture i placed the cable so, that blue colour can be seen;

the result was (and is) that the picture is a mess of different coloured stripes and nothing intelligent can be seen:
to verify that the mini2440 board works I connected the board to PC with A-B Cable in the kit, but Vista could not find compatible drivers, and the S3C2410 drivers in DVD caused vista to crash with blue screen of death.
Im installing XP to my 2 day old HP DV7-2080 to see if it behaves better with that.
(P.S. I hate vista, but they dont sell any lagre screen laptops with XP any more)
multi part question is:
is the cable faulty (it has some wrinkles in it, but nothing big)
is the board faulty
is somewhere a working USB driver for Vista 32bit home premium ?
Eero
