[QUOTE="Elderain, post: 801214, member: 116191"] I'm having a strange issue with my HTPC setup that is driving me insane. Anytime I turn my system on to use the HTPC, nothing displays on the screen until I unplug the HDMI connection from the PC, and plug it back in after a second - then everything works just fine. I do notice that sometimes MediaPortal is fucked up though, but a restart of the app works fine. If mediaportal is screwed up, it displays as the top left 3/4 of the screen - I can see my desktop around it on the bottom and right sides of the screen. My setup is Cable Box (via HDMI) HTPC (via HDMI + Toslink) to Denon AVR-591 to Vizio 55" LCD (via hdmi) The HTPC is on 24/7, no standby modes, no power down settings. It has a GeForce 210 if it matters any. The AVR is powered down along with the TV and Cable box each use (via Harmony Remote). [/QUOTE]
