New build is fine, except my HDMI monitor doesn't work.Well, it kinda does. So here goes:

To remind you: Nvidia GTX 550 Ti (drivers updated to latest 340.52)

Two monitors: One old VGA, the other ASUS HDMI. No issues with plugging in the old VGA. Boots fine, Windows 8.1 64 bit(what I'm using now!)

When I plug my Asus HDMI monitor (have tried alongside the VGA, separate from the VGA), I can see the BIOS appear followed by the spinning windows startup logo but then it disappears as windows boots and gets replaced with "no signal displayed" on the monitor.

The monitor is not detected in Windows (Display Settings, Device Manager, NVIDIA control panel). Cannot for the life of me think of what is going on.

It must be a driver issue, but can't think what! Please help.

Monitor is both DVI and HDMI capable.

I have tried two HDMI cables. I don't have a DVI cable at hand.

well try a different driver and you must try the dvi.also about the hdmi, what resolution and hz are you using?maybe the refresh set isnt supported thus when booting on windows loses signal. i cant think of anything else at the moment.

OK a slight update. I think this is a problem either with my graphics card as a whole or a driver issue.

I updated the integrated Intel graphics drivers, plugged it in my HDMI monitor into the HDMI output on the motherboard and hey presto: it works.

Any further advice? I want this to run off my GTX550 Ti
