So, I got myself a Geforce GTX 260 a few weeks ago, I've been having a good time with it. But there's one problem I'm having.

I have my normal computer monitor, and then my TV set up using a DVI->DVI cable with Dual View. I have no issues with the video mode but the audio has a bunch of static sound...

My previous gfx card was a 8800 gts, it worked great. I use the same setup, the same cables. My audio cable goes from my sound card to my tv, direct cable.

No audio problems on my 8800 gts. The only thing changed, is my gfx card and obviously a complete driver reinstallation (I did use drivercleaner in safe mode of course, and I should also mention that I've tried several different drivers).

On my gtx 260, I do get normal sound on my TV, but I also get static sound. It's like the gfx card is trying to output sound to my TV (while at the same time, my sound card does it), and since it can't output sound through my DVI-DVI cable, it comes up with static...

I have no idea how to fix this, I found something about a (and I quote):

Quote:

in the nVidia control panel, there should be some option to redirect audio back to your standard outputs.

But I can't find it at all, any of you know of something like this? I've never seen such an option, but if it exists, it could possibly solve my problem. As it is now, I can't view movies or anything on my TV with this sound problem.

Or perhaps there's another way to solve this?

Thanks.

*Edit* Also, the sound is completely fine on my normal speakers. Only the TV is affected by this.
