Have you tried turning it off then back on again?

[BlueWRX]

Yes i have turned it on and off both laptop and tv.

My tv it always on HDMI as the PS3 is always in use as i do not have a antenna. and Yes i have changed to antenna to take it off the HMDI to see if there is any difference.

this is the only issue i have with the laptop last year it worked now it doesn't.

Since i have tried and everything possible it purely comes down to that its ****ed!

With the PS3 - what you are plugging in should be formatted to FAT32. Here's a great forum link that I found:

Its got nothing to do with the PS3 but yes it is already formatted with FAT32.

This is purely trying to get my HP laptop to work on my LG tv VIA HMDI cable.

Is it a full HD tv? It could be trying to display in a larger resolution or a different ratio to the tv.

Yup it is. Lol its worked before so i know there is some kind of tiny problem from the laptops end, so frustrating

I use my dell laptop to watch movies on my plasma , but I don't use the HDMI cable I use a monitor cable ( blue square plugs ) and plug it into the PC port on the tv ( no formatting or anything need and quailty is still brillant )

[BlueWRX]

hmm monitor cable sounds interesting may do some research on that

[Twellsy]

I just went to dicksmith and told them I wanted to run the laptop through the tv and they sold me a 10 metre cable ( just check the connections I think from memory both connectors need to be the same )
Got the longer cable so I can kick back on the lounge and surf the web on the 55 inch plasma

Ok Make sure the tv is on HDMI 1,2,3 etc then Right click on your home screen---> select screen resolution-->On multiple displays select extend these displays--> Apply--> keep changes-->ok And youre done ( i hope) I have to do this every time when i connect my TV

Did you try this?

Try having everything off, but connected.... Turn on the TV first to correct HDMI input.... Turn on Laptop....

This sometimes forces the port to activate correctly in clone mode to have the same image on laptop and HDMI...

I'm thinking that there might be an issue with either the HDMI port or the gfx card. Sometimes I've seen laptops stop clone mode from working... You should be able to Fn toggle the display to just display just via itself (no scoreen)

I'd also be at a point to forget the HDMI and just use a VGA cable with 3mm audio cable to the TV instead.
