    Just did a clean install and everything was fine till i used my hdmi to run my projector and or use my amplifier for sound , then shockwave and flashes started crashing , optimus stopped using my gpu to run my games even tho in the control panel i have it set to run on the nvidia card...when i unplug it and try and plug it in again it won't even recognize the hdmi is plugged in till a restart......seems like when i m in discrete mode when i plug my hdmi in it screws with the wifi aswell.... pluging my hdmi into my house amp or projector is corrupting my nvidia drivers or ????? did a clean install of the nvidia driver and everything works how it is supposed to now, but that mean there's something wrong with my hdmi? :confused: :mad: :confused: :mad:
