HDMI or PS3 Problem?

[jus1029]

My family just got a new HP Pavilion 22fi monitor. The thing I like most about is the HDMI feature, so I can play my PS3 while switching to computer mode. At first, the picture showed everything: XMB, GT6, etc., but a few days later,the screen doesn't project anything, all it shows is the monitor status flickering. Resetting the PS3 wasn't the solution.

Then, I tested it on a Sharp 3D TV, and it worked perfectly, no problems whatsoever. Plug it back to the HP, still no picture. I tested it on another HDMI cable, but nothing showed up. I immediately thought the HDMI plug of the monitor was broken. However, came yesterday, I decided to move my PS3 to my room with a Sony HD TV. Initially, it was running as usual...

...until when I was using GT6 photomode. I captured a photo, and the screen turned black and stayed that way, the same effect on the HP monitor. I tried resetting and switching cables, but the damn thing won't project!

Now, how the hay can I fix this?

Try a new HDMI cable.

While expensive and cheap ones will give the same picture quality, the cheaper ones that i have seen are prone to breaking more.

I use a $40 one for my PS3 and it has metal connector heads, never failed me even after countless removal and re-insertions
