Computer won't boot up properly with new TV hooked up

Forum Graphics & Displays : Nvidia Computer won't boot up properly with new TV hooked up

Word :    Username :           
 

Hello, I'm having issues with a computer I have built myself a while back. I use a television as my monitor screen and have not been having any issues with my computer, but I recently purchased a Sony PS3 3D Display, and now I'm having issues with my video signal. If the DVI cable is plugged in, I'll see the bios screen, but windows will never boot up. However, if I unplug the DVI cable before I boot up, and wait until I hear the beep and then plug it in, windows boots up and I can use my computer perfectly. It seems t happen with this TV only as I tried it on my previous TV and my computer worked fine. I'd just like to not have to keep plugging and unplugging my computer in every time, and hopefully this isn't attributed to a larger problem.

My graphics card is a GeForce 8800 GS and I'm running an AMD Phenom II x2 555 processor. The motherboard is a Biostar TA890GXB HD.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

If I were you, I'd be asking SONY.
