Since putting my system together, I've been killing myself trying get HDMI/DVI switching working through the 990. Like anyone, I was ready to take the easy road; advise Outlaw I had a faulty unit, but thanks to Gonk (THE MAN!)I hung in there determined to make something else take the blame.

After connecting everything twice (990 DVI Swithing) and failing miserably, I semi-gave into using component video throughout the system and optical audio. Figuring 3-times a charm, I reconnected everything HDMI-DVI (just as Gonk prescribed) and flat on my face I fell.

I was now convinced the 35' Component/HDMI cable w/DVI Adapter I purchased from Better Cable was the culprit. I called and they had no problem shipping a new one. Got the new cable and KAAZAAM!!!!

Now the bad news....getting the bad cable out and returned and the new one in. Gotta love this stuff.

Thanks Outlaws...for the forum. I truly believe allot of HT geeks have been saved by this.

So you finally discovered a source for the problem?! Wonderful! That one was a real stumper. And at least the old cable can serve as a pull string for the new one. Joy...
