can't get my TV working

Hy everybody,

I come to you because I've got some problem with (I suppose) my graphic dirvers. As it's wrote in the title I can't get my tv working through my HDMI card, but I also can't get any tty neither any screen when I shut down my laptop (SONY VPCF12C5E). Any hel would be pleased. Here are the details.

1 TV: As I do with my old laptop I install my graphic card driver (Nvidia GT 330M) by pacman -S nvidia nvidia-utils and that work great. When I wanted to try my tv, I've set up the HDMI connection and go into nvidia settings, press detect display and nothing come..... My drivers version is 256.53 but I'vs also try with some older 195.36 with exactly the same result.

2 TTY: Each time I want to get to one TTY (with ctrl alt F1-6) I only get a black screen. I've seen other thread with the same problem but the only fix was always to change something into the ATI driver. Here are some stuff that I seen in other threads:

3 Shut down: When I boot on my laptop I can see the black screen with arch logo and info about loading modules and deamons, but when I shut down I've got a black screen with nothing.

I've posted all these problems togethers beacause I think they are all related to my Graphic card driver or some xorg missconfig.
If my english isn't clear enough just told me and I'll try to rephrase.
