My short version; I bought an HDMI to DVI video adapter from Amazon to get my video signal for an upcoming project. When I plug it into the DVI port on my monitor there is a big red tint on the edge going inward. And instead of a black screen when something loads, it's completely red. I plugged it into another monitor, and there was no tint, but instead a bunch of red pixels around the screen. The monitor works, so they're not stuck. It also wouldn't range a resolution between 640x480, while the original monitor handeld up to 1024x768 just fine. Any ideas?
Okay, so good news: it's not the adapter Bad news: it's the female port on the monitor. Nothing too serious just take it apart and reconnect the pin the was broken or bent.
