    I purchased a Vaio Z last week from SonyStyle (CTO - 6GB RAM, Windows 7 pre-installed, Fresh Start etc). Everything on the system seems great, but I am having an issue with HDMI output selection thru the Vaio Centre software.

    I am unable to change the resolution, and the tab says disabled...Has anyone seen this before, or have any suggestions on a fix.
    Many Thanks

    You cannot select resolution there because you running HDMI and laptop display at once just go to desktop right click resolution screen and change it to extended or your big screen TV only ..
