Got a new mini.

Decided to go the MDP - VGA because HDMI looks like arse at the Res I use (HDTV set to 1360 x 768).

When I power up, no probs get a picture. - provided that the cord is plugged in from the start (have had other issues when no cable was plugged in).

I then put in my password and wait a bit while I get the loading bar. Then as soon as its about to boot into my desktop, the screen goes black.

The only way I can fix it is by unplugging and re-plugging the MDP lead, which is not an ideal way.

Anyone else have such a problem with MDP-VGA.

I also have had some issues ensuring that my mini 'remembers' my preferred resolution (it doesn't always, particularly if I get the screen blackout issue), although I seem to have fixed that with the Switch Res X programme.
