Resistors seem fine, smaller wire size is a non-issue so long as one single part of the resistor is touching any part of the inside of the socket (pretty much impossible to not have happen). As mentioned, trip them down a bit, and maybe use the alternate trick just to be sure they don't touch. Worst case if they do is you blow the adapter, you can't really screw up the video card this way.
Ok, that very good to know. I hope youre right.
So i guess I'll go buy more resitors and do it again, cause i just cutted the ones i had a little too much
Another question:
I have a monitor I could plug with this DVI to VGA adapter. Will this work the same as the dummy if I plug in the monitor to the card, but not the monitor to the electricity? or I have to conect it to electricity?
