I have a video card that has two hdmi ports. One is connected to the monitor and the other one is connected to a Receiver. The problem is that whenever i turn on my pc and monitor. The monitor will display black screen. It will work only if i turn on my receiver or if i disconnect the hdmi between the video card and receiver. Is there another way to fix this problem?
