Funnily enough I experienced exactly the sort of problem most people say 
"cannot happen" today.

I got a cheap HDMI cable for the TV in our meeting room (before I had a 
HDMI->DVI cable and a DVI->HDMI converter).  I tested it with my laptop by 
plugging it into the TV and it worked perfectly right up to 1080p60 
resolution, so I routed the cable down behind the TV and up into the desk 
along with the other cables.  Today I try to use it for the first time and 
whilst in 1080p60 mode the display flashes off (just for one frame?) every 
few seconds - highly annoying.  So I change down to 720p60 and it works 
flawlessly.  1080p24 also works flawlessly, I change back to 1080p60 and the 
TV now says "bad signal".

Maybe if I re-route the HDMI cable away from the other network/power cables 
it will work...
