im using Gigabyte GTX 660. i got a DP to HDMI adapter. i connected using a standard length HDMI (ard 1.8m)

it is not detected at all. could it be a hardware problem?the gfx? the adapter? or is there any settings im missing?

Is your setup just 1 monitor connected? If too many won't work. Also the adaptor is hopefully active not passive ones

the graphic card has 1 x HDMI and 1 x DP, 1 x DVI-I and 1 x DVI-D.

i wanted to connect to 2 display. 23" LED Monitor and 40" FHD TV.

i just wanted to do a clone display.

However, even when i just connect to one screen via the DP to HDMI adapter to my LED monitor. it has no signal. it is a passive adapter, but i assume even jus for one display it should be working??

i dont know why doesn't work. But I know buying a passive DVI to hdmi (or vice-versa) will work
