Hi guys
My HTPC currently has no video card, it is connected by HDMI port from the motherboard.
I tried plugging in a video card from my old gaming system (which does not have HDMI, just DVI ports)...
When the video card is in, nothing is displayed on my TV... is this because when a video card is in place, the computer tries to send video out through primarily the video card output (thus I need to use DVI?)
Is there a way around this? Or is there actually a problem with my video card that is making the computer not post (even though the fans and such still turn on)
Thanks for the help!
