Can't he get a new one? Or at least, can't he determine what type of cable is it? DVI-I, DVI-D... I find that a hardware solution is the most appropiate (an easiest) method to be sure :-? > Is there no way to tell which type of connection is being used?

If video source -display- is digital (extreme "A" of the cable is connected to a DVI-x output) and input source -graphic card- (extreme "B" of the cable is connecetd to a DVI-x input) then he can only get a digital signal. What are the involved elements here, that is, graphic card and display brand/model? As per your original question, no, I don't know any software or method to analyze or test the video input signal being digital or analogic :-?
