I've been trying to sort it out for the better part of the last three days: I'm trying to connect my MoBo (Asus P5Q SE/R) to my Gfx card (Nvidia 9600 GT) with a S/PDIF cable. The aim is to make my DVI-HDMI cable transmit digital sound to a Samsung tv.
There is one unmarked S/PDIF 2-pin socket on Nvidia, which is quite easy to spot. However, I have a problem with the other side. I tried to connect the other end of my cable to a 3-pin S/PDIF socket on my mobo - to no avail.
Someone here suggested I should try connecting to an AAFP front panel audio connector. However, I'm not sure which pin to connect. The pin diagram for my MoBo is as follows. I assume ground should be attached to the GND pin, but what with the other cable? The cable itself
looks like this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
