  1. Monitor not getting signal


    I'm having issues getting my HDMI monitor to show a signal. I've tried a lot of options already that have been listed on the internet but I'm not having luck.

    Basically, I have a TV I was using last night with the HDMI cable (Display Port - HDMI) to my pc with no problem. I switched it this morning back to my monitor so I could work. However, it's saying it doesn't have any signal.

    I hooked up my second monitor which is connected VGA and it works just fine.

    I plugged the HDMI back into the TV and it shows the display just fine so I know the cable is working and that my pc is sending a signal.

    I've updated drivers, ran a troubleshoot even unplugged it for a bit then plugged it back in.

    Everytime it works just fine when connected to the TV but the monitor always says check signal.

    I hooked my PS4 into the monitor to make sure that it wasn't the ports on it and it worked just fine.

    I'm at a loss at what to do now.

    *Edited to add that I regularly switch between using my monitor and TV and haven't had any issues at all with it not switching back. I was using my monitor all the way up until I finished up work last night then switched to my tv to watch TV.

    Monitor not getting signal

    INPUT SIGNAL OUT OF RANGE while playing Wizard 101

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forum.

    • Since when are you facing this issue?

    This happens if the signal from the video adapter exceeds the scan range of the monitor. The video card is feeding the monitor a signal stream in excess of what the monitor can accommodate. The two main causes for this are that either the resolution
    or the vertical frequency is set high.

    You may try the troubleshooting steps listed in HP and Compaq Flat Panel Monitors - Flat Panel Monitor Displays Message about
    No Signal, Signal out of Range, Sleep, or Power Save
    and check if it helps.

    Regards,
