Hello all,
here is my problem. I have an ATI Radion hd 3650 video cart with an hdmi port in my dell inspiron 530 desktop computer. Purchased a 50 foot hdmi to hdmi cable to connect from the video card to my TV (panasonic tc-p54g10) plazma 52" screen. ok simple enough right? i plug it all in run the wire behind all the furniture and I get my pc to show on my TV with some display adjustments and tweeks. OK great! i go to power off my PC and restart and nothing but a black screen. Dell tells me its called a no post. thats when nothing shows up on the screen. interestingly when i restart my computer with the HDMI cable disconnected, it starts no problem but again when the hdmi connection is used and plugged to my TV it prevents a system restart.
Dell loaded updated BIOS and updated rivers as well as updated software and drivers for my ATI radeon 3650 video card. which did nothing and I still have the same problem. they even had a guy come to my home to switch out the card and same thing. Not they are having another person come to my home to replace the mother board.
whats going on why is this connection not allowing the computer to boot? I have been reading up on some new HDMI 1.4 version that may be causing the problem. But don't know enough about the new version or any fixes to the problem... Not sure if thats the problem to begin with.
i'm willing to try anything to get it working.
thanks sooooo much in advance for your help.
