Windows 10: HDMI to HDMI connection

I have connected a TV to my PC using HDMI cable. The screen on TV keeps blowing up - I have to reconnect each time to get the screen back. Is there a more sophisticated HDMI to HDMI cable that might be more stable

Hi Craig,

We appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

Please try the methods below and check if it works.

Method 1:

I would suggest you to follow the steps and check.

Let’s first check if “HDMI Output” is selected as the default device.

Follow these steps:

• Click Start and select
  Control Panel.
• On the right hand side of the screen, under
  View by: click the drop-down icon and select Large icons.
• Click Sound.
• If you do not have the
  HDMI Output listed under “Playback” tab, right click in the
  playback window and select Show Disabled Device and
  Show Disconnected Device.
• If the HDMI Output option appears, right-click
  HDMI Output and select Default
  Device.

Now the audio must be playing on HDMI

Method 2:

I suggest you to update the HDMI drivers. Refer the below link to check how to update drivers in Windows 10.

HDMI SETTING

Hi,

Since you have connected an HDMI device, the audio output on your computer should be set to HDMI. If you haven't set it yet, then follow the steps below:

• Connect the HDMI cable to your laptop and to your TV.
• Right-click the Volume icon located on the taskbar.
• Click Playback Devices.
• On the Sound window, select the HDMI Output, then click
  Set Default.
• Click Appy, then OK.

Once done, check if the sound is now coming out from your TV.

Let us know if you need further assistance.

Regards.
