Sky Glass as a monitor for Gaming PC - "No Signal"

Hi all,

I have a brand new gaming pc (with dedicated graphics card), to connect to my Sky Glass TV using HDMI.

The TV recognises that something is plugged in but it says 'no signal detected'. I tried:
• 3 different HDMI cables
• all the HDMI ports
• switching the ends of the HDMI cable round
• changed HDMI-3 to 'Older Device Compatibilty' (though everything is brand new)
• power cycled both devices

I have no alternative monitor, the only other thing I have is a macbook pro.

Anyone set up a gaming PC with Sky Glass before, and been through something similar? TIA

NEVER MIND

It's my first gaming pc. Didn't realise the HDMI has to go directly into the GPU. Duh.

Hi, the gaming pc has 2 sets of HDMI ports. One of them goes directly into the graphics card. The HDMI needs to be plugged into that one, so I just moved to the other port and it worked instantly. Hope that helps!
