What a pain in the ass...

Just got around to finally hooking up my HTPC (been unused for months) to my new Toshiba 42" LCD only to find out the hard drive is dead. Installed a new hard drive and figured I'd run through the OS install using the Toshiba as my monitor, but when trying to enter BIOS the damn tv gives an error about the video source. Had to unhook the damn HTPC and bring it downstairs to hook it up to my Dell 18" LCD test monitor.

Damn thing better work upstairs on the Toshiba once the OS is installed.
