[QUOTE="ianc, post: 277571, member: 63303"] This is not really MP related as but here goes. Just finished building a new PC to use with MP. Everything was working as planned until I connected to to my projector. The PC stopped booting. Connected it back to the Dell LCD monitor and everything worked again. Facts: - The projector was (and is) working when connected to my old MP PC - POST screen displays via projector on old PC - nothing appears when from the new PC on startup - Boots with only Dell LCD monitor connected - you can then connect the projector and it works - boots with no screen/projector connected - Again, you can then connect the projector and it works (need to check to reconfirm this) - Will not boot with projector connected even if projector is powered down Equipment: New PC config: - ABIT AB9 QuadGT mainboard w 2GB memory - Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz - PowerColor Radeon HD 2600 XT 512MB GDDR3 ,PCI-Express (Two DVI sockets) Projector: - Panasonic Ae500 with one DVI socket - HDMI cable with HDMI to DVI adaptor sockets on either end Old PC: - Shuttle PC w P4 - Sapphire Radeon HD 2400 PRO 256MB DDR2, AGP8X - This setup also worked when I had an ATI 9250 installed [/QUOTE]
