HDMI port suddenly no longer sending signal to 2nd monitor?

Hi everyone,

I have a HP Pavilion G6 running on Windows 10 with a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series built in graphic card.

Is there a detect HDMI feature in Windows 10? Oddly the system stopped sending the signal to the 2nd monitor.

I don't recall any settings changing other than the non-stop updates that Windows has every few days or couple of times a week.

Currently I'm using the VGA port to get access to the 2nd monitor (HP Pavilion 22xw).

Usually I'm able to resolve these things pretty quickly as we all are use to suffering with Windows issues over the years but I'm baffled in this case.

I would like to use my HDMI port for my 2nd monitor instead of using a VGA cord.

Any tips or advice here? I know the Community normally can help give some useful suggestions so I'm turning advice here. Appreciate it!

 

Color Display on 2nd monitor

I am using Windows 10 on a Dell laptop with a 2nd monitor which has been working fine. For some unknown reason I have suddenly lost the full color range on the 2nd monitor. I don't know if I have changed some setting by accident or what. I have tried
resetting the defaults but that didn't change anything on the 2nd monitor. The primary screen on the laptop continues to work fine. Any suggestions what needs to be done to restore the full color range on monitor #2?
