I had a 50m VGA lead (don't ask) made up by Leads Direct, and much to my surprise it works. There's some ghosting, but the pic is usable.

If you look at the size of the video co-ax inside the cable, I'm not surprised. Making up a loom using proper co-ax would probably have worked fine.
What resolution are you running?
As a general rule I think the higher the res the shorter the cable before problems.

When you mentioned DA in the original posting I thought it might mean Display Adaptor but now I'm very confused!

Agreed. More bandwidth used = worse picture
Sorry - distribution amplifier. More accurate description than splitter which could just as easily be passive.
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember Chris Evans saying something like:
I thought Duck's Arse haircut, but that's not a Very Good Acronym.
Clever. Very Clever. :-)
