Hey,

Untill MK8 comes out, I want to play MKWii on the Wii. (NOT Wii U!). I want to connect this to my monitor (Acer V243HL). It has a dvi and vga input. 24 inch and 1920*1080. I have bought a Wii2HDMI adapter and used a HDMI to DVI cable to connect it to my monitor. I have tried 480i, 576i and HDTV (480p) mode but the monitor says 'no signal' to all of these. Audio on the monitor through a separte cable from the wii2hdmi adapter to the monitor does work though!

I have seen a lot of people which do NOT have this problem. Am I doing something wrong?
