i have a ACER P244W 24' 1920x1080 monitor and on the website it says its HDCP compatible. when i plug the hdmi/dvi cable into my ps3 and monitor my screen just says "no cables connected" iv set the PS3 to HDMI in the display settings and held the power button till it beeped twice and still nothing. is there anything else i need to do?


update: i unplugged the PS3 then turned it back on while holding the power button till it beeped twice and all i got was a black picture :(

i also thought maybe the cord was broke but i plugged the dvi end into my monitor and hdmi into my graphics card and it worked fine so still no idea why it wouldn't work.

update:update: FIXED! what i did was unplug the dvi cord and power cord from my monitor turned off the PS3.

then i plugged in the dvi cable turned on the PS3 while holding down the power button till it beeps 2 times then plugged in the monitor power cable and put my monitor on DVI mode and bam im playing in 1080p!

Well good to see you got it working. I have an Asus 23" monitor and it was a breeze getting my PS3 hooked up via HDMI. I just bought a 3 dollar cable off of Amazon and it worked beautifully.
 
no problems here getting my 24 inch monitor to run in 1080 p with my ps3. have you hooked the ps3 up to any other hd display. I cable issue is only thing that comes to mind .
