    Hi, I've got my PC [techs listed below] and I've got a DVI to HDMI going from my PC to my 46" Sony T.V. every minute or so, the screen goes black for a moment, but the audio via optical pass-through on my video card remains. I've tried switching cable, switching HDMI inputs and disabling the audio though the video card. about a month ago I had it hooked up to a 13" screen and it was running fine.... Any insight of what I need to do?

    Intel Core 2 duo E6850
    4 GBs of Ram
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 260
    HDMI to DVI cable from Monoprice.com[recommended by friends]

    How long is the cable?
    What resolution are you using? 1920x1080? Tried lower resolutions and see if it still goes black?

    It might be an HDCP issue but I don't know what to do about it. HDCP registers periodically to prevent user from moving cables.
