Hello Everyone,

I have a Zotac 9600GT DP video card and P5LP-LE Leonite mother board from ASUS for HP m8020n computer. The card works fine for video but I get no audio out of the HDMI port. I understand that to do so I need to connect s/pdif cable from the video card to the mother board. The mother board specs are here:

Unfortunately Zotac's specs are horrible but there is only one 3 pin connector to attach the s/pdif cable they included. I tried to attach it to the s/pdif2 port per the mobo manual but the PSU does not like it and computer wont start up. The cable is labeled spdif and gnd and I attached it to the corresponding pins per the mobo specs. I am not sure if I can use the spdif2 but the regular spdif goes out to a back panel coax connector. Does anyone have any ideas?
