I just built my PC yesterday and went through a bit of fretting that my GPU (GTX 770) wasn't working. When testing the PC being plugged in through the motherboard HDMI without the GPU, it worked fine, however, when plugging into the TV with the GPU in, it turned out to do nothing (similar to the effect of the causes in this thread: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/261145-31-perform-steps-posting-post-boot-video-problems). When trying to plug it in through my GPU, it seemed to work perfectly.
Currently, I don't have the nvidia drivers installed so it's showing up as just GK104 where ever I look and comes out as having only 256mb of VRAM, however, I imagine installing the drivers should fix that. It's possible this is also why there's no sound through the video card, however, the system does pick up that Nvidia does have sound, but that it's not connected. I also have a similar issue with realtek sound from the motherboard (MSI Z97-G55 SLI), however, I've installed the drivers, but it still says that it's not plugged in unless I've got some headphones plugged in, but then sound still doesn't come through.
I will be giving my PC a fresh install of windows 8, but I feel this could be an issue that remains after that. I've made sure the HD Audio from the case is plugged into the motherboard, so I imagine that shouldn't be an issue...
Is there any issue it could possibly be?
