    I need help :\

    I currently have a small plasma screen tv located on the wall above my computer. I wanted to use it as an alternative screen. When I looked into doing so I found out that my computer only had one vga out put but then discovered that it also had a hdmi output. So I found a hdmi cable that came with my xbox and plugged it in and it worked. When I shut off the tv though it wouldnt work again. Now every time I go to the hdmi setting on my tv it says no signal.

    I've tried:
    -unplugging both ends of the cord.
    -Switching the ends of the cord.
    -Restarting the tv and the pc.
    -System restore.
    -Virus scan.

    If anyone has any idea how to fix this could you please help me out :O

    The cord worked and then i shut the tv off and then came back later and turned it back on and it didnt work. The cord was undisturbed while i was gone so it isnt/ wasnt broken. It's pretty much a brand new cord, just took it out of the bag it was in.

    I don't think it's anything to do with a broken or damaged cable/port..
    If I remember correctly you need th change how your computer reacts when you plug in the cord.

    Check is duct gathered in the cord or in the outlets you wanna use in the pc and the tv.
