Windows 10: Why does my connected TV need to be powered on for my other two monitors to be recognized...

This is a new issue after upgrading my PC so chances are at least part of this is hardware related, I just don't know what else I can try for any fixes. I upgraded from a 2080ti to a 4080, and this never happened with the 2080ti. Running on Windows 11, everything updated.One monitor is an ASUS PG348Q, the other is a generic Lenovo that I can't recall the model number of, and the TV is an LG C2.My two monitors are always in stand-by when PC is off but I keep the TV off when not in use. Monitors are connected via DisplayPort and the TV via HDMI. If I boot with the TV powered on, even if it isn't

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.
