    Problem Connecting to TV


    I am trying to connect wirelessly from my laptop to my t.v. In troubleshooting, I have come across the following message - "Windows could not automatically detect this network's proxy settings." When I try to set up my proxy, doing it automatically does not work. When I try to do it manually, they need a proxy address and port. I don't know what that address is. So I am told to ask "Ask your administrator". I am the administrator and I don't know!! Please help!


    [Original Title: proxy server address]

    :)

    Problem Connecting to TV

    Laptopc can´t connect to TV

    Hi,

    Please reply to the questions mentioned below in order to assist you in a better way.

    • Are you connecting the PC and TV using a HDMI cable?
    • Did you make any changes prior to the issue?

    I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps.

    • First you need a video cable for making the physically connection. For better picture quality, you should connect the computer to the TV using standard VGA ports or via the DVI to HDMI cable provided your TV supports these ports.
    • Open the "display settings" in your computer and activate output to the TV screen. You can either mirror content of your computer on the TV or extend the display just like a dual monitor screen.
    • Pick up your TV remote and switch to "External Inputs" from the 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 TV before turning on the computer as sometimes it may fail to recognize external display.

    You may also need to change the screen resolution of your TV using the Display settings in your Control Panel else the picture may appear distorted.

    Please revert if you face any issues with PC not connecting to TV.
