    Whenever i plug my Dell Studio 1555 into my TV via HDMI i get no sound. I've tried everything from uninstalling and reinstalling the driver. Setting HDMI as default device. Disabling everything but HDMI. Then when its plugged I get multiple issues. Such as Itunes crashing, Flash player crashing.. Then freezing only thing i can do it a hard restart because the restart button in windows doesn't work. Also sometimes i have a good experience (no sound still..) but after i unplug it the same thing happens, everything crashes.. I've reinstalled my video driving but no luck. FYI flash player always crashes for me no matter what, only way to fix it is to do a hard reset.
    Specs are in signature.

    Thanks in advance

    Have you check to see if you have the latest BIOS from Dell?

    Yes, I updated it a while back to A11 which is the new one they released.

    are you talking about no sound through your tv, or the sound cuts off on your computer? hdmi cables don't carry sound through them, unless you also connect and rca cable from you computer to your tv you won't get sound on your tv...
