Do you screw in both bolts on VGA cables, just the top one or ignore them altogether? (sh.itjust.works)

I plugged one in today. I left the screws loose. Ironically I moved it between two computers that couldn't originally do VGA.

I re-organised my leisure desk. My C64 sometimes hooks up to a TFT thanks to my turbo chameleon 64 cartridge.

Today I hooked my C64 up to my CRT instead. I needed that TFT for my Amiga 1200 which has DVI-I out thanks to my indivision flickerfixer. But I have a DVI->VGA adapter to use that same cable.
