Title: PC HDMI problem
Post by: johncena1 on February 10, 2013, 03:56:24 PM
I want to use hdmi for my computer now, so i plugged in a hdmi cable to the monitor and tried to plug in the other end of the cable into my graphics card. But, there is a little metal bar type thing sticking out right above the hdmi slot.




This is stopping the hdmi cable going into the slot properly.




Is there anything i can do about this?




Thanks

Sure, will take it soon.




Ahh, is it because the hdmi cable is too big to fit in the space?

Oh... Mine is a normal hdmi. But the plastic bit around the sides gets caught on the metal lip. And it stops the cable plugging in properly
