Are you sure your TV isn't broken? Try plugging something else into the same input on the TV and see if that works. Also, how is it connected to your TV? Through VGA, DVI, composite, etc?

 

[wii_cammy]

Its dvi
And It flicks on for a second with the comp then nothing
|But my freeview and stuff work

And how do you connect it to your monitor? Do you use DVI and the same cable?

 

[wii_cammy]

Yes exact same

Oh wait sorry
Its dvi to vga
Its vga into the tv and monitor

What he means there is he is using a dvi converter, as the mac mini only has a dvi on the back.
if your dell monitor is working, then the problem is with ur tv.

 

[wii_cammy]

But it used to work

things break... if ur using the same connector, same cable etc.. to connect your mac to your dell screen, then the fault is with ur tv.

 

[wii_cammy]

But if it works for a few seconds on the tv then it just goes out is there some sort of manual override for my tv o you think

 

[Wii_Smurf]

After much thinking I've come to a conclusion....

You have a Mac

Thats all folks, Good night
