Windows 10: My Monitor connected through a laptop with a HDMI cable makes my monitor go static.

This always happens everyday with my laptop. I have to play around with the cable to get it back to normal. I was thinking about buying a new cable since the one I’m currently using is from onn. Anyone know how to fix this?

Laptop display and monitor will not wake when HDMI cable plugged into laptop.

I have a laptop. Lenovo ideapad FLEX 4-1480 Signature Edition.

The laptop has a display, and the laptop is connected to a monitor via an HDMI cable.

Sleep mode is disabled.

Screen timeout is enabled.

I lock the computer. The laptop display and monitor both eventually deactivate.

I move the mouse and press keys to wake the monitor. Nothing happens on either the laptop display or the monitor.

If the HDMI cable is not plugged into the laptop, the laptop display will wake as intended. The problem happens only when the HDMI cable is plugged into the laptop.

I have to remove the HDMI cable from the laptop, wait a few seconds, reinsert it, then the laptop display and monitor will wake. Again, the laptop display will wake just fine when the HDMI cable is not plugged in.

 

Cannot connect HDMI Monitor with laptop

Hi!

Thanks so much for your response, Carmack!

I figure out the issue and want to share it with others. I used a USB - HDMI adapter and HDMI - HDMI cable to connect my laptop with the monitor. I removed the adapter driver (my laptop's functions are irregular when the driver exists). Now, I use a miniDP - DP cable to connect to the monitor. The problem is solved.

 

Cannot connect HDMI Monitor with laptop

Hi everyone!

I use an HDMI-HDMI cable to connect my laptop with a monitor.

However, after 2-3 seconds, It keeps forcing me to go back to the log-in screen. I enter my passcode. Two screens turn on, then turn off immediately after 2-3seconds.
