TV causing PC to not post

[Naesy]

I just got a new pc. Was hyped to use it. Now I'm just sad because there are so many problems. 

 

If I boot my PC with my TV plugged in it will not post to either my TV or monitor. If I boot my PC with just my monitor plugged, and then plugging in the TV once booted then it works fine. Its annoying because if I forget to unplug my TV before booting then I have to force shutdown my PC.

 

Possibly useful info:

TV is a cheap 4k Veon

Windows 11

All updates and drivers installed and updated as far as I can tell

 

Pls help

If you leave it does it boot, or is the bios hanging?

Is your tv or pc grounded?

 

What are your specs?

 

What exact tv is it?

It boots all the way to desktop. No amount of shuffling cables around, turning monitors on and off again seems to make the pc want to post any image to either screen. Restarting with the TV unplugged and then plugging it back in once booted is the only solution ive found.

Grounded means that a device will not keep residual power, static power,... because it can leak away into the ground.

 

This is visible in electrical sockets and cables by showing 3 pins, 3 slots, a mix,... basixally 3 connections.

I hope i am not misinterpreting. All cables have 3 pins except for the TV which has only 2 pins

Does your TV have bluetooth or wifi? . 

have you tried to connect your TV through that tech? 

what brand of 3070 ti is it? .. you have your monitor connected to the main hdmi port?  they are usually numbered.

My guess would be your bios is struggling to pull EDID info that it understands from the TV*, do you get a working screen after a full boot?

 

There will be a `default` output, that if you had multiple (working) monitors installed the bios would choose to post to, this is the one you want the monitor plugged into. I'd try using the Dports for you monitor, I know my GPU `defaults` to DP0, but it's not nvidia, so YMMV.

 

*You can break EDID with some "adaptors", like DVI --> HDMI etc, this might be beneficial in your use case.

Even with the numeration as you mentioned the TV might be grabbed as your main display. 
Unplug the TV, boot your PC and then plug in the TV to your GPU. Is it set up to be your main display? 
If yes, manually force your monitor to be your main display. 
Some TVs have problems with seeing the signal from PC. Maybe after turning on your PC try power cycling the TV to see if it grabs the signal from PC and stays turned on. 
 

I don't want to scare you, but I had the exact same problem on my ASUS TUF RX5700XT and only RMA was able to fix it as some sort of controller was broken on the GPU itself.

Got GPU checked. Not sure of exact issue but it did have to be replaced. Lucky I got that WARRANTY BABYYYYY.
