RE: Not sure you read my post - the 15 foot cable does work fine.................

Yes I read your post and saw that the 15' cable works fine, I didn't say that there's anything wrong with it. It works but only after you enable the VGA receiver with the 3' cable so I reasoned that the 15' cable loads down the VGA driver/transmitter enough that it can't enable the receiver (on the TV) but once it is enabled with the 3' cable then it is much easier for the VGA tranmitter to drive the longer cable. Your "timing thing" doesn't really make sense to me. I don't think the TV detects anything when you change sources it just switches to that input. If it's the TV's problem why would the cable matter? If you have access to other brands of 15' cable you might try some of those. One of them might not load down the PC driver as much (less impedance) and it may even be that your cable is defective even though it works somewhat.
