    Hey guys,

    I'm having trouble getting the HDMI output working on my asus G51J-A1.

    I tried to connect my laptop to my Sony LCD TV today via HDMI. Both were turned on at the time, and I connected them, but the laptop could not detect the TV.

    I then turned off the laptop, and turned it on again. Now according to NVIDIA control panel, it has detected the Sony LCD TV, but there is no picture showing on the TV. I've tried to clone the display, extend the display, use the LCD TV as the primary, but nothing shows up on the TV.

    I've also tried this on my Sharp LCD TV, and it's the same thing. Nothing shows up on the LCD TV via a HDMI connection.

    I'm using the latest NVIDIA graphics drivers. Running Windows 7 Ultimate x64.

    Has anyone got the HDMI output working on their ASUS G51J-A1?

    Please help!

    Thanks in advance!
