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?

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