Windows 10: Can't connect laptop to monitor via HDMI

I've been trying to connect a TV/monitor to my laptop and I've not been successful with Windows 10. I can confirm that this is not a problem with my laptop, the HDMI cable, nor the monitor as it is working without issue on the other side - Xubuntu 18.04.


Looking around the forums, the recommendations are always, update your drivers and stuff. I've tried all of them, through the device manager, but still no good. Does anyone have other suggestions, please?


If it helps, my Windows build is rs4_release 17134

Second monitor not working with HDMI

Hi,

I have a AOC monitor hp Pavillion laptop and while trying to connect to the monitor using a HDMI cord, nothing is displayed. Comes up with a No Signal info. I have tried multiple cords : HDMI - HDMI, HDMI - DVI , HDMI - VGA, nothing works. The monitor is
not detected. I have another laptop on Windows 7 and and if I try to connect directly with VGA - VGA, it works, but does not work with HDMI from the same laptop. Basically, it does not work with HDMI at all.

I have updated the latest graphics card, both nVidia and Intel, but no progress.

If I use the same laptop and connect to my hd tv using the same cord it works, but does not work with my monitor. The monitor model is AOC e2450swh. It has support for HDMI. Even if I try to use a HDMI to VGA cord, still it does not display anything.

Any suggestions would be really helpful.

Thanks

 

HDMI Monitor not connecting to Laptop *No Signal*

Hi guys

I have two monitors connected to my laptop - one connected via HDMI and the other connected via VGA. Yesterday both worked 100% fine and have done for months. This morning, the HDMI monitor did not switch on while the VGA connected monitor worked fine. I
have googled/youtube'd and tried everything I've come across:

- Tried restarting with just the HDMI connected

- Tried updating/installing the latest graphic driver

- Tried installing the latest monitor drivers

- Tried plugging in/checking all cables

- Tried switching the HDMI for one I know is working

- Tried installing a Driver Update manager - ran the scan - all good with the drivers

The VGA connects just fine but the HDMI always throws up the issue "No Signal".

One thing I have noticed is that yesterday, I could right click the volume option and select which of the devices I wanted to use but today that option has disappeared.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

 

Connecting laptop running windows 10 to hdtv with hdmi

I'm not very tech savvy.

• I know how to run the HDMI cable between laptop and tv.
• I know how to set my tv to use correct HDMI port.

What I need to know is how I tell my laptop to recognize my tv and configure it to use my tv as a monitor.

Anyone that can tell me step by step how to do this in windows 10?

Thanks.

Thanks for all the help. Hooked up the HDMI cable, plugged tv back in, started laptop up, switched the tv to correct HDMI port and viola...there was my laptop start screen on my tv! Didn't have to do anything but make a few display
adjustments!

Thanks again, everyone.
