DVi to HDMI issues

[vettesea]

Hello

I have HP laptop with docking station (providing DVD-D Output) and a Sony Bravia 40 in full HD TV.

I am trying to connect the two using the DVI output, a Male DVI to Female HDMI adapter, and a standard HDMI lead to the TV.

I cannot seem to get any signal through to the TV whatsoever when I connect it all togother. I obviously chnage the output using Fn F4 and although the laptop tries to change output, there is no movement whatsoever on the TV.

Is there anything I am doing wrong, is this even possible? I have heard it could be a resolution issue, what can i do to resolve.

Thanks
