Re: Cheap vs expensive HDMI cables

this is probably way off topic, but it is about a HDMI cable hooked up between my Toshiba Satellite laptop, and my VIZIO 32" LCD TV. I can't get any sound on the TV or the laptop while connected. The picture is Great, but no sound through the HDMI connection. Instead, I still get the sound from my Cable Program that is running through the DVR. If anyone has an idea, I'd be willing to try it.
But I'm not going to stand in a bucket of water, and stick a screwdriver in the wall socket!!! ;-)

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello, I'm Randy and live in the state of Washington. 60+ years here and can't think of another place I'd rather live. I have been a person that can't seem to throw away something I might be able to fix. My daughter would say to people when she was a little girl, "My Daddy can Fick-It". You see I'd really rather try and fix something, than throw it way. After all, if it doesn't get fixed, I get to see what made it Tick!!!

I have a 60" Pioneer Plasma TV (or monitor) that my friend bought years ago...
