I've been given an Acer aspire 5920 laptop, the hard drive had to be replaced so I put XP onto it (formerly a Vista only machine) I've gradually found all the drivers I need for XP functionality but I'm wondering if this lack of communication between my laptop and my Samsung TV is down to the drivers? The cable is brand new for the svideo.
I've tried the Fn + F3 or F5 but nothing happens. (the manual is vague and just mentioned the function button and the s-video socket, which wasn't much help)
I followed all the threads online about switching the pair off then rebooting together to get the tv to work, tried extending the desktop onto screen two in properties. No joy, screen two says it's active on the laptop then the box is unselected again seconds later.
Any help appreciated I've got to my wits end with it.
Many thanks!
