I recently purchased a DVI-D equipped monitor, and I already had a DVI-I equipped Video Card (Nvidia FX 5200 to be exact). I purchased a Dual DVI-D cable to connect the two based on several google searches. I got the cable today, and after connecting monitor to computer and powering up, I got no signal. I checked the connections again and still nothing. My Analog has been working fine, and this is the kicker, when I hook both cables up at the same time, Nvidia recognizes two monitors(even though it is one) but if I try to switch to what I assume is the DVI based signal, I get the "searching for signal" message and then nothing. Obviously the cable is good, and the connection from the video card is good as well as the connection to the monitor because the "second" monitor would not be recognized if there were a flaw in any of the three. Can I get a little help trying to figure out what's up! I already downloaded the latest drivers from Nvidia also.
