receiver should not be the problem but test it out straight to tv first.
Ok, gonna do that and see about getting you a screencap.
You mean this one right? (this is just to my monitor)
...we can also do this in some other messaging system if you prefer.

Nothing jumps put as being wrong. Also, what does your tv say the input is? There is usually a info button about the input.

No no, that was an example, I was asking if that's the screen you want to eventually see.

Yeah, so that's the thing. I can't set only the TV to that because I can never SEE the computer at all on the TV. So I can't TELL it what to be set at.
Huh? Turn on tv first, then turn on computer and it should display properly. Assuming you picked the right input on tv. Worst case, uninstall video driver, run DDU, then install driver again.

That's slightly problematic because I have no onboard GPU on my mobo. So if I uninstall the GPU drivers I won't see anything.

that is not true. at the minimum you will get default windows driver.
I finally did reinstall the whole driver for the GPU but nothing really changed with the problem. But anyway, this is no longer about older consoles.

What graphics card is it using? Also what driver version and windows version are you using?

I have been running a HTPC (i.e. a PC connected to a TV) for 25 years (obviously it has been upgraded over time). The only issue I can think of that would cause this is if the graphics card does not properly support HDCP and/or you are not setting the output to the correct port/display (i.e. doing something like extend, and the TV is a second display so your desktop is really on the first display and the TV would just be given a black background that you need to move your mouse over to, and where you move the mouse over to will be dependent on where the PC thinks the second display is located, so it might be right, or left, or up, or down from your primary display on the monitor).
