My pc (i7 4770) doesnt recognize my tv (SONY 46EX) anymore it used to till I disconnected the hdmi cable while orhanizing its cables. Now - nothing .I used the built in vga card and my R9 280x -nothing I even reinstalled windows from scratch.
The tv is connected with two cascaded high quality 3m hdmi cables (anker). I tried another cable but nothing.
I tried forcing windows and nope.
Any ideas?
Is it the tv, pc or?
 
Which model of the 46EX do you have?
A detailed list of your PC specs would also help.
Also what do you mean by "forcing windows"?
