How to connect Mac Mini with LG 19LS4D LCD TV?

Hi all, I just purchased my Mac Mini and tried connecting to my LG 19″ HD TV using the supplied DVI to VGA adapter. When I first booted the machine “No signal” was displayed on my TV. I plugged in another 15″ monitor and played around with resolutions and cable swapping and it works at 1024 x 768 at 60Hz (not ideal but better than nothing). Everytime I turn off the Mac Mini or it goes to sleep the resolution is reset and “No signal” appears again. I have tried connecting via VNC to play around with the settings remotely but this has no effect on my TV monitor and is only resolved by the solution above or by leaving my Mac awake and not sleeping. The documentation for the TV says that all the resolutions I have tried, and more are supported and Detect Displays under System Preferences shows these but defaults to a resolution that produces a “No signal” box. Any ideas would be greatly welcomed.
