even so, I'm not sure how that would help in this scenario. I tried to delete the *.plist files, but I wasn't able to in single user mode - told me it was a system file. I've tried Displa圜onfigX (and bought it to "export" the settings) - not only does this crash when connected via VNC but the exported settings are ignored on a reboot. I've tried SwitchResX while connected via VNC: it run and it gives me the illusion that I'm changing settings but after a reboot, I get nothing but the "standard" VGA modes. If I connect to the mini via VNC, it tells me that it only detects a standard VGA monitor. The connectors are typically used to transmit video from a source (like a computer or game console) to a display device (such as a monitor or TV). When I plug in the DVI-to-HDMI adapter, which runs to the HDMI switch box, I get nothing.

It correctly shows that it's a Sony TV and it's happy. Its been weeks and I am still working on re-installing and re-assembling all the parts: 2 monitors, multiple external drives, re-install software, etc., a mayor PITA. I upgraded the TV to a sony bravia xbr43x800e that only has HDMI. If I hook up the mini to the TV directly via DVI to DVI, it works fine: I like to drive it in 1280x720 but I've had it run all the way to 1080i. I am still recovering from a motherboard failure that happened in December. I have a dell laptop that was connected to a sony bravia TV by VGA cable and worked fine. I mean, it's shows me no screen of any kind. I know the switchbox is handingly the HDMI to DVI OK - I have a TiVo HD and Xbox 360 which both work fine but the Mac mini isn't cooperating.
