hi its me again just an update.
i dont know what i did, but my vid card now sees my plasma,
however, no picture is being displayed,
just plain black on both hdmi ports (1&2)
the nvidia software lets me choose which monitor to use or both,
when i use both monitors, my mouse disappears to the right as if there is another screen to the right,
however, my plasma remains blank.
any help will be greatly appreciated
thanks!
