Sony Bravia DVI-HDMI "Pink Snow"?

Question

Hey guys...

just bought a sony bravia and a dvi-hdmi adapter....but when I connect it to my pc, which uses a Geforce 8600GT i get lots of pink noise on tv's screen..tried switching HD format but the only one that seems to be working is 576p but I'm not really pleased with the quality...

I managed once to go way up to 760p without the noise...but the colors where scrambled, like there was no red...or there was to much red sometimes...

Answer 1

Most displays work best at their native resolution, which is either 1920 x 1080, 1280 x 720, or 1024 x 768 for most HD TVs.  It sounds like your video card has difficulty handling resolutions that high and that may be your problem.

Answer 2

a) Make sure the Geforce outputs in DVI-digital

b) Boot the PC while the TV is on and connected. This allows the card to read the EDID from the TV and provide the best resolution

Answer 3

It should be able to handle.  Maybe you have a faulty adapter?
