The deal is, I watch videos on my laptop and at times on my TV throug
HDMI. Now, as I know it, whenever I need to watch on my TV and use th
TV speakers, I have to go into Control Panel and change the Audi
Settings to set the HDMI option as Default. Isn't there a way to have i
change automatically? Or atleast have both enabled (Application output
to both Speakers and HDMI)? Its a pain to have to do it manually eac
time. I believe its possible in Windows XP as a friend of mine doesn'
need to make this change each time. He simply plugs in the HDMI cabl
and audio outputs to the TV. Uplugs it, and it goes through the Lapto
Speakers

I'm using a Dell XPS M1330 running on Windows Vista Home Premium
