I posted back in January about my plans to use the HDMI port with a TV:

 
Fast forward to today and this is driving me nuts. I want to hook up my 570 to a new Insignia HDTV via the mini HDMI port. I have a good quality cable that I know works fine. When I make the connections, the computer recognizes the TV just fine, shows the model number, supported resolution, etc.  However, on the TV end, it reports no signal!
 
Through troubleshooting, I discovered that If I go DVI from the card to the TV with the DVI to HDMI adapter, it works fine, video and sound.
 
Also through troubleshooting, and I can't remember exactly, but I disconnected both DVI cables from the card and only had the HDMI connected.  Saw nothing at bootup, no bios screen, but there was a momentary flash of the windows logon screen and then it went away.
 
Can someone please help me so that I can get picture and sound from the mini HDMI port on my card? I am using the current 353.49 driver.

    Did you change the input on your TV? I know it might seem like a stupid question but I forget to do it all of the time.

    Yes. Tried both HDMI inputs on the TV, and switching the inputs yes

    You can try repeatedly unplugging and reseating the cable to try and clear up any tarnish that might be on the contacts. I have gold plated cables and still have to do this due to the humidity in my area.

    Hmm, no humidity here and I just recently blew out all the ports with a can of air because of construction dust... I'll try that but I don't think that's the issue in my case.

    It could be a bad port on the video board in which case you would need to submit a support ticket and request an RMA replacement.

    It's not a bad port on the card because when it's the only monitor connected, at boot up, it shows signal on the screen.  Then as soon as you get into windows, the signal is lost....

    Maybe your TV needs a firmware update? If you can't find any newer firmware for your TV then I would suggest rma'ing the card.

    I'll check on the firmware update, not sure about that actually. Will update after I look into it, thanks!

    Make sure the settings in the TV and PC are set to HDMI. Use a different cable too.

    I can't imagine it's a cable issue because the same cable works perfectly when connected from my video camera to the same TV, plus the fact that I do get some signal when only the HDMI is connected as a computer monitor at bootup, and while windows is starting up.  Then when I'm in Windows, signal is completely lost. All the settings are correct too
