Hi, i have a Nvidia GeForce GTX 550 Ti, i have my PC plugged into my 32" HDTV with a HDMI Cable. I want to change this and plug it in with a VGA cable but i get nothing through the VGA Cable just a blank screen
You still failed to fill out your PC specs!

Try this
Look in your bios for a setting that sets HDMI/SPDIF/auto
Set it to spdif
You wont get sound - just vision on vga
You also have to use Spdif/optical cable or the light green socket for sound output
Thanks for your reply,
i have now updated my System specs.
I couldn't find any setting in the Bios related to what you mentioned.
My question; why would you want to use the VGA instead of the HDMI cable? The HDMI cable carries 1080p and sound, a much better choice, the best choice is the HDMI cable.
Im having trouble with resolutions with the HDMI and it also looks a bit blurry through the HDMI, i have had the same problem in the past and have just used a VGA and it looks a lot better.
Does anybody have any clues why it will not display with a VGA Cable?
I would say the TV might be set in Digital mode and unplugging and plugging TV back in while in VGA would reset it to recognize the Analog signal coming through.
I have had this problem before in Hotels when trying to hook up my laptop.
Wow, Thanks, it worked, didn't think it would be so simple, thanks a lot Thorsen, and everyone else fore helping.
I would also try the HDMI, but enable the ClearType in case its not. That will fix the fuzziness of text:
Just type cleartype into the startmenu search bar
