It just goes straight back to the same problem after restarting to change resolution. Someone please help. *edit* this might help someone else so i'll put it here. But if you another tv that does work, go into settings under system i believe. There's an option for HDCP or something like that, un check it. Toggle it OFF and redo the safe mode start up and change resolution.

Before I would get a flickering screen, snow, or no signal at all. Hope this helps.
