I bought the acer aspire 5920 and it says its (ready for output to HDTV) so i bought a rocketflesh cable which is supposed to hookup from your laptop to an HDTV. So i had everything hooked up and bought the HD dvd "300" well everytime i put it in, nothing happens no programs come up, nothing at all. My laptop acts like its trying to read it but nothing ever happens, but when i put in a dvd it works fine windows media player comes up and it transfers the picture from my screen to the tv. Any advice would be helpful at the moment thanks.

ouch...you should probably get your money back for the movie :(. just because your laptop has HDMI (mine does too), it doesnt mean it can play HD DVDs. you have to have an HD DVD drive instead of the regular CD/DVD drive. The option to add an HD DVD drive to a laptop usually costs $200-400. sorry to rain on your parade :(
