</div>Ok.. That certainly could be part of the issue (I note that I was also<br>
trying to test the HDMI -> DVI-D adapter with a tablet I have that has<br>
an HDMI output port, also without any success)<br>

the standard or does or does not support, and how that affects its<br>
compatibility with DVI-D<br>
