Hi all hope that title makes some sense. I've just upgraded my graphics card from one that runs off vga to one that runs through hdmi, but the hdmi socket on the graphics card doesn't align with my computer case. Essentially the graphics card can only go in one spot (single PCI x16 slot), but with it in this position its hdmi socket is obscured by a metal lip on the outside of the computer case.... So can't plug the hdmi cable in. Annoying.
There is another hdmi socket that connects to the motherboard itself, which is unobscured, but which doesn't send a signal to the computer (ie my monitor reads 'no signal' when I plug its hdmi cable into this socket) - is it somehow possible to run the graph card's hdmi signal through the motherboard's hdmi socket?
Hopefully that all makes sense, and isnt too stupid a question. but let me know if you need more info.
Thanks in advance,
Jay
