hi im having a little trouble booting my pc when its connected to my tv through a hdmi cable. However if i boot my pc while a monitor is connected and then connect it to my tv it works! now my monitor is broke im just wondering if there is anything i can change on the settings before i boot my pc to make it work on my tv.
if i boot whilst the tv is connected it comes up invalid format on the screen.
 
If you unplug the HDMI cable when it doesn't boot, and plug it into the monitor, does it show up? Sounds like when it boots with the TV plug in, the TV doesn't recognize it and doesn't show the screen. I think your computer boots, but the TV just doesn't show anything.
 
yeah it boots without it in however when i plug the cable into the tv it shows up "invalid format" i used to start the computer with the monitor and then plug the tv in.
i was just wondering if there was any settings i could enable to stop this happening so i can always boot with the tv connected?
