Windows 8 - DVI not working

altjx · 10-26-2012, 02:23 AM

Just did some more troubleshooting... So I basically plugged in my DVI cable while still using the HDMI cable, and the screen started flickering (with the input set to HDMI still). However, switching the input to DVI just gave me the "No DVI signal" message...

I then switched back over to HDMI, and all I seen was the backlight on the screen with the mouse (and the circle next to the mouse as if something's loading)... After a couple minutes of moving the mouse and seeing it show the busy mouse icon, entire PC froze. Couldn't num lock, move mouse, or anything. So here I am again connected via HDMI.
