Xbox 360 slim, no video through HDMI/ DVI to monitor

I use a computer monitor with my Xbox 360, and I run an HDMI to DVI cable from the Xbox to the monitor. Earlier, I switched the monitor over to my desktop PC, and plugged it in with a DVI to DVI cable, and after I was done with that, I tried switching it
back over to receive video from the Xbox. The problem is, after switching it back over, I have no video coming from the Xbox. The monitor detects that there is indeed something plugged in to the DVI port and is able to receive video, and simply goes in to
power save mode.

I haven't got the slightest idea how to solve this problem, but if anyone can give me instructions or even a rough idea maybe on what to do, I would appreciate it greatly.

No More Video Output to Monitor

Hi.

I'm going to try and be as detailed as possible with this one. About to pull hair out.

----------------------------------------------------

Materials On-Hand:

Xbox 360 Slim (The Culprit)

Xbox 360 Pro with HDMI Output (Alternate Test Subject)

Laptop Computer with HDMI Output (Alternate Test Subject)

HDMI-HDMI Cable (Works Fine)

HDMI-DVI Cable (Works Fine)

Dell 2408WFP Monitor (Has DVI Port, HDMI Port, Composite Video Port)

Dell 2208WFPt Monitor (Has DVI Port)

40" Sony LCD TV (1080P Capable)

60" Sony LCD TV (1080P Capable)

----------------------------------------------------

History:

- For the past 7 months, I've had my Xbox 360 Slim connected to my Dell 2408WFP Monitor with an HDMI-HDMI Cable. No issues.

- A couple of weeks ago, I lent my xbox to a friend a couple doors away. He has a Dell 2208WFPt monitor, which does not have an HDMI Input. I gave him an HDMI-DVI cable to use, and it worked on the monitor with no issues.

- When I got my xbox back, it refuses to output a video signal to my Dell 2408WFP Monitor via HDMI-HDMI or HDMI-DVI. Nothing I do can get it to output to my monitor (which it was working fine with for the 7 months prior to me hooking it up via HDMI-DVI to
the Dell 2208WFPt).

----------------------------------------------------

Configurations Tested:

Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-HDMI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor = NO Video/Audio

Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-DVI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor =
NO Video/Audio

Laptop Computer + HDMI-HDMI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor = Video GOOD (Proves that 2408WFP HDMI Port and HDMI-HDMI cable both work)

Laptop Computer + HDMI-DVI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor =
Video GOOD (Proves that 2408WFP DVI Port and HDMI-DVI Cable both work)

Xbox 360 Pro (Borrowed from Friend) + HDMI-HDMI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor =
Video/Audio GOOD

Xbox 360 Pro (Borrowed from Friend) + HDMI-DVI Cable + Dell 2408WFP Monitor =
Video/Audio GOOD

Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-DVI Cable + Dell 2208WFPt Monitor =
Video GOOD (Proves that Xbox 360 Slim still outputs DVI Signal OK)

Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-HDMI Cable + 40" Sony LCD TV =
Video/Audio GOOD (Proves that Xbox 360 Slim still outputs HDMI Signal OK)

Xbox 360 Slim + HDMI-HDMI Cable + 60" Sony LCD TV = Video/Audio GOOD

----------------------------------------------------

Troubleshooting Options Attempted:

Factory-Reset Dell 2408WFP Monitor

Turning Display Discovery Off

Turning Display Discovery On

Attempting to Reset Display Settings with Right-Trigger + "Y" Button upon Boot

Hooking Xbox 360 Slim up to Dell 2208WFPt monitor, setting a lower resolution, and hot-swapping to Dell 2408WFP monitor (Both HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI Cables)

"Blindly" Navigating Menus while hooked up to Dell 2408 WFP monitor (HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI) to modify Display Discovery settings and selected resolutions

Hot-Swapping between Xbox 360 Pro (Borrowed from Friend) and
Xbox 360 Slim

Hot-Swapping between Laptop Computer and
Xbox 360 Slim (HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI cables)

----------------------------------------------------

With all of the above, my Dell 2408WFP Monitor immediately goes into Power-Save Mode when the
Xbox 360 Slim is hooked up to it. The monitor works with another xbox, a laptop, and via multiple cables. Therefore I know that the ports are good, the cables are good, and the monitor is good.... but it refuses
to display anything from my particular Xbox 360 Slim. Ever since being hooked up to the Dell 2208WFPt monitor via HDMI-DVI, it simply will not work with the Dell 2408WFP Monitor. I cannot think of any other options.
The Xbox 360 Slim works fine on any other display I try it on. Another Xbox works fine on the Dell 2408WFP Monitor with both the HDMI-HDMI and HDMI-DVI cables. As a reminder, the
Xbox 360 Slim worked just fine with the Dell 2408WFP monitor for 7 months via the HDMI-HDMI cable.

I appreciate any assistance that can be provided. I don't know what else to do. It's very mysterious. Thanks.

 

No video through Dell monitor

I've been using my Dell PC monitor with my Xbox 360 Slim for a few months now, but recently it has no been showing video.

I connect my Xbox to the monitor through an HDMI to DVI cable, but the monitor just goes into power save mode and does not show video.

I recently used a DVI to DVI cable to run video from my desktop PC to the monitor, but after I tried switching back the display video from the Xbox, the monitor does not display video.

How can I get my monitor to display video from the Xbox again through the HDMI to DVI cable?

 

I'm a little bit confused here. So you are trying to use a HDMI to DVI connection to display your xbox on your monitor, but it isn't working?

 

Yes. Sorry if it seems confusing.

I normally have it connected to my monitor through and HDMI to DVI cable, but for whatever reason, it stopped showing video. I can still get sound through my sound system, just no video on the monitor.
