HDTV not seen by vista home basic

So I have 64-bit home basic installed on a new Mac Pro 2.8 with a nvidia 8800GT. As soon as I installed windows I reinstalled the nvidia drivers from their website to make sure I had the newest one. My problem is that whenever I plug my 32 inch Element DVI->HDMI it cannot be seen by my computer.

The funny thing about this is that when I am booted into Os X I can use the hdtv as a screen just fine. Also, when I was installing vista with my Samsung lcd and my hdtv both plugged in the vista installer ONLY would output to my HDTV (which is plugged into my 2nd DVI port).


So it worked during the install but after it does not.. what?! Help!

Re: HDTV not seen by vista home basic

I thought they dropped HDTV support for the Home Basic edition?

Does anyone know?
