Connecting with an HDMI-to-DVI cable
If the graphics adapter of your TV does not support the HDMI interface, connect the computer to the
TV with a DVI (Digital Visual Interactive)-to-HDMI cable. Note that the HDMI-to-DVI connection is
only supported by the HDMI (DVI) port and does not transmit audio. To listen to the computer sound,
connect external speakers to the audio output connector of the computer.
Connect the HDMI-to-DVI cable to the HDMI (DVI) port of the TV and the DVI output port of the
computer as shown in the image below.
