Hey everyone. I have an Acer monitor hooked up to my GeForce GTX670 and had zero issues. I recently bought a DVI to HDMI cable to go from my PC to my 2014 55" LG LED TV.

In the NVIDIA Control Panel, I set my settings to clone. Rather than having source 1 (monitor) and source 2 (TV), they became source 1|2. I asked to identify sources and 1|2 appears on my monitor. My TV isn't getting a signal.

At first, I set it to be an extension, and my monitor said it was source 1 when ID'd. I rebooted my PC and my TV kicked on with the Windows 7 loading screen, so I know the cable is good. But as it was loading windows, it lost signal and my monitor came back on. This is when I decided to clone it rather than extend. Now I can't get any signal.

64 bit Win 7
Intel Core i5-2500k CPU @ 3.30 GHZ
16 GB RAM
EVGA GeForce GTX670

While typing my PC specs, my TV did an auto shut down, which caused my monitor to black out for a second. I turned my TV back on, my monitor flickered off and my TV said connecting for a second before the no signal came up.
