    that shouldn't need a separate driver. try a different GPU driver.

    Should be the same - remember to redirect the HDMI output from your Sound Options. Select the Digital Output Device and click the Set Default button, then restart your media player.

    By looking at the spec, it should be the realtek HDMI driver.
    Go to www.realtek.com.tw, under HD Audio Codec, get it there and it should work.

    thanks guys for the responses. But what I need is to know how to hdmi video out. What other GPU drivers work on beta x64 I tried downloading the new 9.3 pack but all it did was install catalyst and c++.

    Duh - next time I'll read better when I'm not asleep.

    Assuming your GPU isn't sending HDMI out, make sure you're setup properly for HDMI out to begin with - either clone or external as desktop.

    Check here - if you can't find something on Start64 or MSTN, good luck. The Windows 7 Codecs package was just released on the 24th, so you should have some luck with it.
