    Hard to believe but my 290 is now 3 years old and still love it. But a little issue. Recently upgraded to a Seagate Momentus XT 750 (wonderful drive by the way) As I recall, no issue for 2 years and about 10 months. Then I thought I would plug in to my 60" Samsung on HDMI. Then, although web pages are fine, NO VIDEO in normal apps like WMP or VideoLAN. After a lot of searching, so clues, reinstall video drivers and ... Then I trip upon that if I set my video to the duplicate screen setting all is fine. Which is OK as a temp, but every time I close it up or shutdown I need to redo the duplicate setting process. Somewhere I'm sure there is a little thing I haven't found but I have NO idea what it is at this point.

    Thanks for any help.
