I have a 1x to 1x PCIE extender and when i plug it into my video card, my computer wont turn on at all (which i figure it must be a short somewhere), and someone else told me that i had to short some pins on the motherboards PCIE slot...anyone have any experience with this?

It's all about the game, and how you play it

You should refer to here about pin shorting depending on the slot the cards in.
