Thanks very much
you may have to clone the desktop on your laptop i had to when i connected my laptop to my tv
to do this in vista (don't know if it's the same in xp)all you do is after you have connected the cable right click the desktop and you should see an option to clone the desktop once you have done this you will then see your desktop on the tv screen and can navigate to any file
it is important to connect first otherwise you won't get the option
hope this helps

i have only done this once or twice myself so not that familiar with it but i did get it to work and watched films off my laptop hd
