So, I recently got a new 40 inch 1080p TV (my last display was a 20 inch 720p TV) and I've been having all sorts of problems with it being hooked up to my PC. My PC currently has a GTX 780, Intel i7 3770k, a 750 watt power supply, and a Gigabyte Z77 motherboard running on Windows 7. Here's what's been going on;
When I first started using the TV, I'd have issues running full screen games. As soon as the game would launch it would go to a black screen. I learned from other forums that unplugging and plugging in the HDMI cable could fix this and changing the refresh rate from 60hz to 59hz. It worked, I do not know why but it did. After that, I started getting "No Display" messages on my TV and neither of those things would work. I have to do a hard reset to fix it. Sometimes, the computer just goes into a restarting cycle and I have to keep it off for a few hours but that's only happened about two or three times. It's happened when it's been on sleep mode for a while, when it's been on the desktop for a while, during a blu-ray movie, and here's something interesting: It happens when I plug in a 3.5mm jack into the motherboard (for my 5.1 audio system). As soon as I plug it in, I get the message.
So, it sounds like this might be the motherboard? Or could it be that the power supply doesn't have enough juice to power this new display with a larger resolution? I've tried updating Windows, my graphics drivers, using MSI Afterburner to "force constant voltage", but nothing has worked so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
