Monitor does not turn on
OK, im going to try to cure this one more time before I give up.
I have a Leadtek GeForce FX 5900 128mb w/s-video out.
First off, when I plug in the s-video cable, it will detect it so I go into the nview properties and select clone view. Then I can see my tv connection but it's in black and white. I have to goto the output selection and take it off auto and set it on s-video, then it works fine. (just a weird occurance, but it happens everytime)
Now for the real annoying problem, the display works fine on both the TV and the monitor. When I restart the computer, they both still work fine.
When I shut down the computer (cold boot) and turn it back on. It will only display it on the TV and not the monitor. This is very annoying b/c I have a 50"HDTV that I like to watch video on from my computer.... alot. So I have to unplug the s-video cable from the back of the computer, which is hard to get to I might add, to get it to display on the monitor again.
I recently formatted and re-installed windows and it still has the same problem. I have tried the 3 most recent nvidia drivers and they all do the same thing.

GeForceFX 5900
Gigabyte ga-vt600 1394 (i think, not at the computer right now but theres no oboard video)

50" Toshiba HDTV

Have you set your primary display to the monitor? Which one has the big 1 on it in display properties?

I have to set it to master to get video to play on the TV.

Ive determined that it is not a windows issue due to the fact that I cannot see the monitor even in post.
