Is there no way to tell which type of connection is being used? For whatever reason, it is important to him to know that the connection is digital.
I might be saying complete bullshit, but do DVI cables carry tha analog signal? It's true the connectors in VGA boards have both signals, but shouldn't a standard DVI cable only transmit the digital signal and ignore the analog part, which is used only when a DVI->VGA adaptor is used?
Moreover, even if the cable transmits the analog signal, if it's plugged at the DVI input of the monitor, I believe the monitor will take digital signal from there. Even if there is also analog signal in the cable, it should be ignored in the DVI input.
