Help with DVI input

Dj Say New member Username: Smokelaot Post Number: 1 Registered: Feb-08	Posted on Saturday, February 02, 2008 - 20:29 GMT I have a digital DVI input...my goal is to connect my laptop to my hdtv via the dvi to vga adaper. I bought an adapter with both digital and analog capabilities. My question is can I use pliers to remove the four prongs that surround the wide prong to create a digital adapter? If so will this effect performance at all?
