So I really haven't been paying attention as I use a HDMI to DVI-A converter on my rig. But I was wondering if anyone could help me with this?

I have a ASUS R9 290X in my current build and the Screen turns black and white everytime I put a HDMI cable in. Whenever i switch to DVI, its color.

I was wondering if there was a way to fix this? I've reinstalled the drivers, pulled out the card, updated cataylst and nothing.

i7 4790K, 32GB DDR3 Corsair Vengance 1600MHZ (XMP Enabled), ASUS R9 290X DCU2 CFx, 750W Corsair G80+, ASUS Gryphon Z87 Armor.

Have you tried a different HDMI to DVI-A connector? A different HDMI cable to begin with?

@Xtasy26: I have, still the same.

It may help as I done this rig with Win 8...
Possible conflict with 10.

I'm not sure I understand it correctly...

You use GPU - DVI A -HDMI - TV and get colours, while using GPU - HDMI - HDMI - TV leads to black and white?
