    I have a Vaio FZ190 and I'm having trouble getting an output signal from my hdmi port. I've recently reinstalled Windows Vista Business since I couldn't get my brightness and video output fn keys to work on Windows 7. I figured I could revert back to Vista and "upgrade" to Windows 7 instead of doing a clean install to Windows 7 and that way I'd have all the drivers set and working.

    I've carefully installed the drivers in Vista and the only problem I'm now having is getting the output signal from the hdmi port to work. When I hit fn + f7 to toggle between LCD and external video output, I only get the "LCD only" and "Setup" icons to choose from even though I distincly remember having two other icons to toggle between "display and lcd" or "display only".

    I've tried connecting it to the TV via hdmi cable but not luck.

    What should I do? HELP!
