Hello, I have an issue where I get a blank green screen or no signal to the PC whenever I reboot my PC, while my 1660 (purchased June 2019) is connected via HDMI to my TV.
 
I have updated all the latest drivers (471.11) and even upgraded the actual HDMI cable to a 48gbps 4K120, 8K60 cable, but I still get the same result. 
 
The only way I can get into windows is... complicated: After I reboot, I have to immediately unplug the HDMI from the PC, and wait a few seconds. Once I see the HDD activity lights I can plug the HDMI cable in. This results in one of 3 things, No image/signal to the TV, Windows Log in screen or the solid green screen. I have to repeat the process until I can get into windows. 
 
If I leave the HDMI plugged into the PC while I restart the PC doesn't seem to boot, a single short press of the power button (not a long hold) will shut the PC down. Odd, I know. 
 
There are no USB devices currently plugged, and I've followed the troubleshooting guide pinned above  
 
Any troubleshooting ideas are welcomed

    A solid color screen typically indicates that the GPU has gone into a protection mode. Typically a replacement via warranty is the solution.

    New issue ... it worked before ?
     
    What TV ?
     
    Test with a monitor
     
    TVs have their own issues ... look for firmware, settings (like max refresh rate), & required cable - recommendations from the TV mfg
