Radeon 5770 HDMI output doesn't work

[jackisback]

My machine is fitted with a Radeon 5770 video card. I normally connect to my monitor via the dvi output with no problems. However when I noticed that both the monitor and the video card have HDMI ports I tried connecting with a HDMI cable. The result was a "No Signal" error on the monitor and no video as a result. What have I missed out on here?

Thanks in advance for any help

Cheers

you have to change the settings in windows and the ati catalyst control center settings?

Set the card up to connect to "HD TV" @ 60hz? in catalyst.

Check same in WIN 7
> right click screen
> screen res
> "1920x1080" (this res. ONLY if your monitor can cope with this - otherwise you could bust it)
> next - "advanced settings"
> monitor = 59/60hz

Easiest way >
Uninstall then reinstall Ati driver with HDMI lead only connected. It should detect HDTV/do all this automatically for you!

Reset your monitor if you have messed with the settings as menus will usually revert to "Auto-detect" incoming leads!

That should do it.

Fill out system specs for further help - Ta
Can you at least tell us your monitor make/serial - or is it a secret?
