  1. Some General Newer Computer Questions


    Question #1: first question is, is it bad to use the button on case daily to turn off the RGB Lightning prior to sleeping? i could sleep with it, wouldn't bother me i don't think, but lately been switching it off nightly. Just worry a bit if i turn it off too much, might damage the button

    Question #2: How often should i check Gigabytes site for newer Bios for my B460M-DS3H motherboard as well as Drivers? Weekly? Monthly? Every two months?


    Overall liking my Intel 10th Gen System, gonna get an M.2 eventually to use as boot drive, and 1 game on it i think, then use my current 250gb drive for other games i think and or upgrade that to larger Sata one as well. and keep my Western Digital black drive for storage.

    Might get Western Digital M.2 possibly with heatsink, maybe larger Western Digital Sata one--not sure yet.

    Thank you all in advance

    :)

  2. General question

    Hi all,

    I have a general question. Are people on this site that are listed as Microsoft Support Engineer actually Microsoft employees? Or are they IT specialists with qualifications such as MCSE, MCP, etc?

    Regards,

    Steve

    hdmi questions

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

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

    Method 1:

    I would suggest you to disconnect the HDMI cable and try to connect it buy following these steps.



    • Turn off your computer and position it within easy reach of your TV. Disconnect the monitor, but leave the mouse and keyboard connected.
    • Connect the appropriate video cable from your computer's output to your TV.
    • Turn on your TV and set it to the input that matches the output on your computer. You might need to refer to the user's guide included with your TV for instructions on how to do this.
    • Turn on your computer.
    • You should see Windows displayed on your TV. If the screen looks stretched, or part of the screen seems cut off, you probably need to adjust the screen resolution in Windows.
    • If you can't see Windows on your TV, you might need to reconnect the computer to your monitor and adjust the screen resolution before you connect to your TV.


    To adjust screen resolution follow this steps:



    • Right click on the screen and select Screen Resolution.
    • Check if the resolution is set to 1024x768.
    • If it is not, then set it to 1024x768.


    Method 2:

    I would suggest you to go through the article and follow the steps given. Here is the link for your reference.
