I don't really know if your PSU is up to task. Could be your PSU. Also have you tried using a Monitor instead of the LCD TV?

Reset the CMOS and turn off all OC's

ok i reset ocs and no change. hooked upp an old monitor and it wworked. so how do i get these games running on my tv?

When you get the no signal turn the monitor off and on again, i have a problem with some games and my monitor where it will not redetect the signal on a resolution change and so claims there is no signal. Turning it off and on again fixes the problem.

that ddnt work. just stys blank. even unplugged from mains etc, unplugged hdmi. i just wana play games now iv finished uni :/

So your using your tv correct? Are you sure your tv is set to input from HDMI (If that is what your using).

Yea iv got it sorted now.

I screwed aroung with the display settings, and launched the game in dual screen mode, and it opened up on my tv. then i cancelled dual screen mode and its stayed on my tv, and has ben fine since. i think it was just trying to boot on my default monitor which i dont use anymore.

basically, right clicked my disconnected monitor on display setting, and set as attatched. applied, the launched the game. Closed the game, then set my disconnected monitor to not attatched. fixed it for me

my cousins 9600PRO dose that same thing but hes card is just crap and yours is pure awesomness

thanks lol. try what i did, the game may be trying to run on a monitor thats not attatched

i think the problem might be that the graphics card will set a refresh rate that is too high for your monitor
