HDMI-to-DVI Connection and Audio
</h2>

<p class="pBody">
If your DTV is equipped with High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), it is possible to connect the DTV to your computer using the graphics card&#39;s DVI-I connector. However, the DVI-I output of the graphics card supplies video only to the DTV. You will need to make a separate connection from the audio output of your computer to the audio input of your DTV.
