New desktop won't display on tv

[Eventyne]

I just got a brand new desktop built for me and everything worked at the place that built it but when I tried plugging it into my TV via HDMI it displays nothing. Would there be any reason for this? It's a 32in HDMI led Samsung TV.

Thanks!

did you set the tv to use the correct input from the computer ??

Yes I changed the input to the correct input

so everything he use to display is exactly the same as what your using now ??

I would try a dvi to hdmi cable - I found hdmi to hdmi may not fully work out and can be finicky.. [ I got a box full of them that don't display but the good ols dvi to hdmi works every time ]]

Is this the only output connection to the TV? (i.e. not using other monitors)
