Hey guys, here’s my problem.
I have a Geforce GTX 260 with two DVI ports, and a 24’’ ASUS LCD monitor with a DVI, VGA, and HDMI port.
The monitor came with a DVI-HDMI cord. So, i connected it as follows to my card and monitor but nothing comes up on the screen when i boot. I get “NO DVI INPUT”. I only get a signal when i use a DVI to DVI cable.
Any reason why?
You should set the Source on the monitor to HDMI, because it’s now looking on the DVI port. It’s usualy a button called ‘Source’. If not, look in the user manual.
But you’ll get the same quality when connecting it directly to the DVI port.
I have to set the source from under the NVIDIA Control Panel? (view attached)
So, using a regular DVI cable would produce the same quality as an HDMI cable?
No you set the source on the monitor itself.
And yes, dvi can produce full hd resolutions.
oh i see. well i’ll just have to do that in the future then!
i’ll stick with the dvi cable for now since it gives me the same quality.
much appreciated friend.
Sure, no problem dude
