mph634,
I would recommend that you update your BIOS from Dell's support site. In most cases, this immediately fixes any connectivity issues.
Keep me posted!

I have a 1 year old Dell Vostro laptop (Vista 32-bit) with a fairly good graphics card (GeForce 8600 GT 256MB). But when I try to connect my laptop to my Samsung TV through the side S-video and audio cables, it says there is no signal. Has anyone else had this problem? Solutions? Thanks.
