I dont think HDCP is the problem. I have been researching this for a while and I think people just say you need HDCP because of word of mouth. What I mean is that all of these people have just read or heard this somewhere and havent tried it for themselves.

Anyway to my point, I am using a Westinghouse L1975NW 19" and it does NOT support HDCP. It works fine with my ps3, which is at 720p. I got a black screen at first too. What you have to do is reset the connection by turing the system on from standby and holding the power button until you hear a second beep. If that doesn't work you can try to connect component/compisite cables, to a regular tv, along with your HDMI to DVI, to your monitor. Then turn the system one and change the settings to output through HDMI. I hope this helped. Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

Im using the same monitor as the above and it works great.  Problem is I share the monitor with my PC and I hate having to unhook the vga cable just to play my PS3.  Is there any way to switch from vga to dvi mode without having to unhook the vga cable?
