hi to all,

I have a monitor Dell ultra sharp TM 2208WFP(with DVI-D and VGA inputs) which i got from a fellow TE member in March 2008. i was having a good time watching my dth(airtel) using an external tv tuner card until i went for HD.

I did my research and got my self a HDMI to DVI-D cable and hoped that it would work, at the onset i could see the initializing screen, and got video. i watched it for some time on that day (around an hour or so),i was happy and went for the all hd channel package :). However , from next day onwards , i could only see the initialization screen after that my screen goes blank. i bought another hdmi to dvi-d(this time Single link) cable from Ebay, thinking it as an cable issue, but still i could only see till the initialization screen then again everything goes blank.

now i am back to my old self watching SD on a HD dth box with my TV tuner card. any help would be deeply appreciated.
thanks in advance..
 
what settings have you kept the hd output signal to? 720p or 1080i? afaik, the monitor has a resolution of 1680x1050, so it might support only 720p resolution and below.
