  1. Monitor show no signal VGA from my laptop TYPE C display but Windows detected the monitor


    Hello, My monitor is an old model, Dell s2009w with only VGA port and my laptop is on Windows 10 Home with only Type C as display port no HDMI and VGA. I bought an unbranded adapter that connect type C and VGA. As per subject above, Windows detected an external monitor being connected and i can switch between duplicated/extended screen etc. However, there is always nothing in my monitor and just show : No signal coming from your computer. As my laptop can detect the monitor being plugged in, i guess the adapter is fine and the problem lies elsewhere. I have checked and all drivers are up to

  2. Vga monitor connected to my laptop via a hmdi port

    Hello Andrew,

    The VGA connector is a video connection for sending analog video signals to the monitor or TV. Unless you are planning to connect to a special monitor, such as a plasma or LCD TV that has a DVI connector, connect your Primary monitor using
    the VGA connector.

    The HDMI connector is a digital connection type for transferring high-definition digital video signals AND audio signals. When used with a compatible monitor or television, HDMI has the capability of carrying true high-definition video and
    audio as well HDCP protected content. If your computer has HDMI audio, it should be set as the default audio device in Windows audio properties (available from Windows Control Panel). The monitor or TV with HDMI must have speakers to hear audio.

    We suggest you try the steps below and check if this works.

    • Open the "display settings" in your computer and activate output to the screen. You can either mirror content of your computer or extend the display just like a dual monitor screen.
    • Check the "External Inputs" of your monitor menu. You will need to change the default "Video 1" to a different selection which may be "HDMI 1" or "Video 2" depending on how you have made the connection.

    Important: Make sure you connect the cable to the laptop before turning on as sometimes it may fail to recognize external display.

    Let us know with the outcome.
