PC not detecting Monitor

‎06-29-2012 01:08 AM

So my monitor was working just fine a couple days ago. Running well, no problems whatsoever. I wanted to connect my Xbox to my monitor so my girlfriend could watch TV. Using an HDMI cable, I was successfully able to run it through the monitor, and had a blast on Call of Duty over my computer screen. Problem is, now I can't switch my monitor back over to running on my PC. I've tried multiple times of unplugging, restarting, and disconnecting/reconnecting the video cable, but to no avail. I'm still able to play Xbox over the monitor though. To switch over to HDMI, I remember placing my monitor in "Projector Mode" or something of that sort. Was that my error, and any help switching back over?

Well nevermind, everyone. I just found my solution: my PC was also hooked up to my TV, which was where the desktop was the entire time. Live and learn, huh? Haha.
