Blu Ray Nightmare (Still!!)

Doigy — Sat, 04 Aug 2007 10:42:27 GMT

Hi all,

Been on here before with the same problem but I still can't get it sorted. Here we go! I have a VGN-AR21S with WinBD running XP. For a time Blu Ray discs played fine on the laptop but now it just crashes it. I've bought a samsung 52" full 1080 HD LCD TV. Connected the taptop to the TV with a HDMi lead and I get no sound. When the Blu Ray did work the picture was very pixolated and the picture jumped. I'm really hoping someone can solve this for me. I want to enjoy Blu Ray films. After spening neally £4000 on a laptop and TV I'm starting to get a bit pissed off with the laptop.

Please someone help me!!!

Hi again Doigy!

Couple of pictures for you:

The first is the sound option in control panel you should have.

Edit: go Here for the instructions of how to get and install the nvidia drivers you need to sort everything out.
