Hey guys, I have a HDMI to DVI cable that works with my 360 to my PC Monitor, but for whatever reason, my PS3 only displays a black screen. I tried the trick with the older model PS3s by holding down the Power button to force it to re-adjust to the new resolution, etc. Am I missing something?

My Monitor is a Dell 1905fp. Any ideas?

I've watched a bunch of videos on youtube, just to see if I did something wrong at all, but I'm plugging it all in correctly..

The PS3 uses HDCP...if you have some crummy, bottom of the line monitor from the likes of Dell, it probably doesn't support HDCP.
