No TV output, TV not detected!
I have a Inspiron 510m with the Intel 82852 Video card. I used to play my DVDs on the TVoutput, but now the Video card is no longer recognising that my TV is connected. No software or hardware settings were changed. I though it was a cable or tv problem, but when I tried connecting another Dell (older model) using the same cable & TV it worked perfectly.
Note: I always turn on the TV before turning on the laptop, I have the latest Video card Drivers, I tried decreasing resolution to 800x600...
HELP! any advise? thank you in advance.

Thanx cwa107,
Turns out that updating the Video Driver with that found @ www.intel.com is no good (for the Dell at least)! I was able to playback the output on the TV today by updating the Video card driver with that found @ www.dell.com (as a friend brought to my attention! Thanx gabe)!
I guess I dont need to flash the BIOS drivers now... =) and you are right about the monitor drivers! Small question though, what is exactly a "generic driver?" Thanx in advance.
Cheers
Balgus

Tried that, still didnt work! Even tried to decrease resolution to 800x600 Color 16bit... nothing is working. I even tried it on a new Sony TV, the TV output option is just not appearing. Do you know where I can get the update for the "Plug and Play Monitor" Drivers? Thanx.
