So I have my PC hooked up to my receiver via HDMI to display my screen on my TV. But anytime the receiver is turned on all my screens go plank for a period of time is there a way to prevent this?

I have an Nvidia GTX 980Ti and Two Monitors the TV is set to mirror the main screen.

The HDMI cable for the TV is run to a Denon avr-x3200w receiver. Then from the receiver to the TV.

My PC fully recognizes the Denon avr-x3200w in the Nvidia settings.

It just when the receiver is turned on everything goes black and same for when its turning off. Its like its causing the graphics to reset.

When Windows detects a new monitor, all monitor screens will go black for a second, and then it will come back with your new monitor detected and usable. I don't believe there is a way to disable this (maybe in the registry?), so my best suggestion is to turn on your receiver, and then turn on your computer. Alternately you could just keep your receiver on at all times, but it is up to you.

Edit: Forgot to add this suggestion. Try using Ctrl+Shift+Win+B when it happens, this pretty much restarts the graphics driver.
