Help what DVI cable do I need?

[the_sanguine]

I have just bought a PC with a 256MB PCIe nVidia
GeForce 7800GTX graphics card and I want to mate it with the HannsG HGHW191 19" Widescreen TFT Monitor. I thought a DVI cable was a DVI cable....erm maybe not. What do I need?

You need a DVI-D (Thats a Digital only cable) to DVI-D

Your Video Card supports DVI-I (I means intergrated) and can send both DVI-D (Digital) and Analogue, look for the four small pins seperated by the large contact on your Video card connector. The monitor wont have these ! Look here for some information and cables you need Good Luck...
