Windows 10: Problems with connecting an external monitor to a laptop with hdmi to vga adapter

I am having a problems with connecting an external monitor to a laptop with a hdmi to vga adapter/converter, the weird thing is that the monitor works normally without any problem when i connect it to my other laptop (HP) or my orange pi one and when i connect my laptop to my tv it works normally, so i think that this is probably some driver problem (my laptop model is ACER ASPIRE 5 A515-52G-544T and my monitor model is SAMSUNG SYNC MASTER 913N)...

Hdmi to VGA adapter & connection to external monitor

I have a Windows 10 hp laptop and a Cable Matters HDMI to VGA adapter. I usually plug my laptop to an HD TV but am having to do this for a while.

I understand this can be tricky, as hdmi to VGA is digital to analog conversion. I got it working yesterday after plenty of fight, not in display options but windows key + p and selected extend. When done working I closed my laptop lid. Since then it has not
worked. Can any you help?

I'll tell you what I've done and what it's doing. Now, Windows does indeed think it's connected to an external monitor. Everything about windows says so - there's two icons in display. I can move things to other monitor. But, the monitor doesn't agree. It's
blinking in standby.

If I unplug VGA from monitor, it realizes it. If I unplug adapter from Windows, it realizes it. But there's still a gap and I can't find the answer.

I've restarted, shut down, combinations of those with plugging in adapter before / after, I've deleted generic display from device manager, tried a different monitor, and other various "windows nudges" I call em. Went to manufacturer's site, not any help there.
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

 

Cannot connect samsung laptop to dell monitor using HDMI to VGA adapter

I have a Samsung series 5 ultra laptop running Windows 10 and I have tried to connect it to a Dell P2210 monitor using a HDMI (from laptop) to VGA (to monitor) adapter. The monitor display shows "No VGA Cable" and I cannot find the monitor on my laptop.
I have tried to extend the laptop display by using keys FN + F4 but it is still not working. Is there something wrong with the compatibility? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

We would like to suggest to contact your manufacturer of your monitor to ask for confirmation. Ask them if the monitor accepts HDMI input and output. Some laptops will not still convert video outputs, even if you use a VGA converter to HDMI.
