Windows 10: ASUS Laptop with Windows 10 won't detect external monitor

Hello,


I have an ASUS X540UA-DB71 Laptop running Windows 10. I am attempting to connect it to a external Dell P2419H monitor direct via HDMI cable. I have updated all drivers to the latest.


When connected, the computer does not detect the monitor, and the monitor does not detect the computer.


The monitor works fine when I connect my other Toshiba laptop using the same HDMI cable.


Please help!

:)

 

Laptop won't detect external monitor

Hello everyone,

I can't seem to have my Asus laptop identifying my new bought Asus monitor. I am not good with computers and I go on forums all the time to look for solutions. This time simply did not work. Here are the suggestions I found and that I followed entirely like
a child would strictly follow his mother's steps :

[obviously connecting via hdmi cable the monitor to the computer]

- then fn + F8 to activate it => done [duplicated, extended, name it]

- the monitor works fine on its own. I selected on the screen the HDMI option so it should be fine.

- installed the Chipset Intel Kabylake blabla on the asus drivers website [checked the right reference etc] = done. nothing changed

*somebody suggested reinstalling, updating also the graphics card - wanted to but apparently I've already got the latest version.

- Device Manager > Diplay Adapters > Intel(R) HD Graphics 620 [right click] > Properties > ''Select Output'' was supposed to appear in one of the tabs but didn't find any.

- right click desktop > display settings > detect > Message : ''Didn't detect another display''

- right click desktop > intel graphics settings > Display > General Settings > Built-in Display [only option available]. Also tried:

- right click desktop > intel graphics settings > Display > Multiple Displays > Detect - again, none detected.

*At no point when I go to Display on Control Pannel or right click desktop + Personnalize / Display settings, I see a number suggesting that the computers communicates with an external monitor.

Here is what I have :

Laptop : ASUS B9440UA-GV0177R

Windows : 10 Pro

Ram : 16 GO

Cable conection / input : HDMI

Monitor : Asus VZ229

*Precisions : Since I made the terrible mistake of buying an ultra thin portable with basically no ports, i connect everything through the Asus Mini Dock. I'm planning to buy a self powered usb dock but I doubt that is the problem. I simply wanted to mention
this because yesterday, the current mini dock didn't provide enough power for my recording little interface for music / mic etc. The computer, the dock, the cable and the screen are all newly bought so none of them are supposed to be damaged because of long
use.

Sorry for the long message but I am desperate... I thank everyone in advance for taking the time to help me

Thank you and have a wonderful sunny day!

External Monitor not detected

I am running windows 10 on a MacBook Pro using bootcamp. I use a imac as an external monitor. Windows cannot "detect" the monitor. using a firewire connection, which works splendidly under OS. Any suggestions?
