Alright guys, I have a cable box and a Samsung 22" monitor. I wanted to run it as a TV so I took the cable box, got a hdmi to dvi converter, and set it up. It was working great for a few days, and then my brother accidently was messing with the power switches in the house and accidently turned off the computer one. When I turned the fuse/breaker switch back on, I turned the computer on and I would no longer get a signal from the BOX to the Monitor. Now, I get a signal for about 10 seconds or so and then it just goes away. I have talked to the cable company and they say it is extremlely difficult to get the signal back.

Onto the solution, I have tried unplugging everything for 10 minutes and re-plugging it back, but that didn't work. I have tried all sort of things, but nothing has worked. Do you guys have anything you suggest that will work?
 
Explain your setup better. What do you have connected to what? Just a cable box and a monitor?
 
HD Box to the monitor using HDMI to DVI converter.

Motorola DCH3200


I also would like to say that using a different box did not do anything as I have another box in another room and I switched them out, but no change. I also tried using a different HDMI to DVI Converter but no luck either.


Also the monitor is connected to the PC via DVI.
