PS3 Problem

Hi guys,

I have a PS3 connected to my Iiyama 22" TFT using a HDMI > DVI adaptor.

It has worked perfectly for 3 months.

It was working fine this morning. I turned it off.

Just turned it back on this evening and it came up with a message telling me that an available HDMI source had been detected, and did I want to pass audio over HDMI. I ticked no, and ever since then all I can see on my monitor is a 'Signal is out of range' error.

What is it doing and why? I've not connected anything new to it, I've not changed any settings, nothing. It's done this all by itself. I suspect it's reset itself to some sort of default setting that my monitor cannot display.

The question is, how do I... unset this? I can't get any output onto the screen now!

I have tried holding down the power button for 6 seconds until it beeps at startup. This restores video - but again it asks if I want to output audio over HDMI. As soon as I say no, bang, out of range again :(

Thanks!

But the odd thing is I've not gone to connect it to anything. It's still sat on my shelf and connected to the same source it was this morning when it worked fine!
