Help! Am I missing something using HDMI?

[ITPaladin]

I have my GTX 670 installed and connected the two DVI plugs for my Acer and Asus monitors, and plugged in the HDMI cable to the third monitor (Asus, same model as other Asus; delivered today).

The new monitor is not displaying anything. The power light is on sleep. If I push it off and turn it back on the monitor displays the normal brand name and then goes to the VGA No Signal message and turns off.

I rechecked the graphics card port to see the HDMI cable is plugged in, and it is in the monitor.

I tried disabling the Acer monitor (haven't even tried to do Surround) just to have a dual monitor setup like I was using with the Acer and first Asus, but the new one still is not turning on / displaying anything.

In the multiple display checkboxes, it is showing the Acer, and two Asus', so something is going through the HDMI cable I would think to identify it.

Check the monitor for input options. My monitor makes me select if I want DVI or HDMI instead of doing it automatically. If it's on the wrong option, it doesn't think it's connected at all.

ok. I just put the dvi into it and it came on so it isn't the display.

Ok I just plugged in the HDMI into the Acer and now all 3 are on. I now see that you have to set the HDMI input source via the on screen display pressing a button 3 times.

Now to test Surround with a non-matched Acer. Hopefully I get lucky and don't have to sell it to get another Asus.

Alright goodluck! Hope you don't have any more problems.

It appears to be working.

I went through the road lining-up and all.

I just need to load a game that properly supports the 5315x1050 res which is the max bezel corrected res listed.
