Got my new HD monitor yesterday, and using it as my TV as well. The problem is, whenever I switch the monitor to one of the other inputs, my computer stops sending a video signal to the monitor. Even when I go back to that input, the monitor says it's not getting a signal. Only way to fix it is to unplug the computer (I know, but I can't see another option). Is this typical with a DVI connection (Older monitor only had VGA, so never used the DVI output)?

Asus VK266 Monitor
Windows 7
ATI Radeon X700 Pro Video Card

Seen it before.. check the maufacturers website and see if they have a solution.. hopefully you will have better luck than I did with an nvidia card..

Is this the card, or something Windows does? What if I go back to VGA (Monitor has both)?
