Windows 10: Why is my pc casting to my tv but no image?

I Have a Samsung TU7000 Crystal UHD 55 inch and recently I wanted to cast my pc to it which both pc and tv support. The casting will connect to the tv just fine but will NOT show an actual image on the tv. The screen is black and when I move the mouse that is all I can see, the cursor moving. I want to duplicate the display which has the effect stated previously. When I use extend display I can get an image but only on certain resolution settings for the tv display. I have followed EVERYTHING I can find online and updated every driver. Nothing fixes it. my Pc uses an AMD Ryzen 3 3100 4-core

Unable to Cast to Device to my Smart TV

Thanks Bree.

The other similar thread to this says 'Cast to' used to work to a Samsung TV but now it doesn't. This would imply something is 'wrong' with our Win 10?

Can anyone suggest some more troubleshooting steps to try to determine what the issue is?

 

Casting Photos to TV via Chromecast

Hi Donald,



Thank you for the reply.



Try the steps listed below to cast Desktop screen:

• Make sure the Chromecast is connected to the TV and both the devices are On.
  
• Expand the Google Cast extension icon and select
  ‘Cast screen/window (experimental)’ option.
  
• When prompted to cast entire screen,
  Accept and click on ‘Share’.
  
• Open ‘Photos App’ to mirror photos on the PC.
  

You may search for an app that can cast your media to any
Google Cast device on your favorite search engine, and install it from the Store.



Regards,
