    Hi all,

    I am quite puzzled with a problem i have at home now. I just hooked up my Envy 15 to my LCD TV via HDMI.
    I went to power options on my Envy 15 and on the option "CLOSE LID" i selected "Do Nothing"

    the video plays fine with my laptop opened in Media Center, but when i closed the laptop lid i get no video or sound, am I missing another setting somewhere?

    Currently draining alot of battery, Laptop and TV showing video together.

    i did a search but didnt find any direct answers, maybe i got my search terms wrong???
    :confused:
