    I have a Sony Vaio FW275D which I am running Vista on. In the past I have used Fn+F7 to change my display and hook up my notebook to my HDTV using an HDMI cable.
    Now when I hit FN+F7 I only get LCD and setup as the options. The previous display choices are gone.... I have tried detecting my TV through the mobile control panel but that doesn't work either. I really have no new software I have put on. I thought I enountered something on the web stating that there is some weird connection between this and using an optical mouse? That seems a bit far fetched but I guess stranger things have happened.

    Any thoughts?
