No display when using hdmi to dvi cable

Well I originally was using a d sub vga cable plugged into my monitor, then connected one of those dsub to dvi things that come with a video card and plugged that into my video card. Well i eventually bought a hdmi cable to dvi cable. Sometimes it would get signal to the card, and sometimes if i restarted the computer it would loose signal and I would have to use my vga cable instead. Well eventually I had it running and I never had to change it. Well I recently swapped my video card for a 8800gtx and now When I plug the HDMI cable into my monitor and plug the dvi cable into the port on the videocard, My screen comes up and says HDMI 1 in the corner but then the screen just says its going to power off. When i use the remote to select what video input im using there is a check mark next to HDMI 1 and when i select it, it just starts counting down to turn off the display. But the dsub to dvi works.

Does anyone know why I cant seem to get the hdmi to dvi to work properly?

My tv is a Westinghouse 26" hdtv
