2nd monitor and HDMI

2nd monitor

Why can I not use the HDMI port to connect a second monitor?   I have a XPS 8700.

It won't let me even turn on your computer if I have my TV or second monitor plugged into the HDMI port.     I have not had any problems with my laptop.   The satellite on HDMI monitor and he was there.    I am struggling with this for hours.

Hello

Thanks for writing on the Dell Community Forum.

May I know if you use the HDMI port integrated on the motherboard or graphics card?

If you have a card installed, then the built-in HDMI port would not work. Also check if the input of the monitor options is selected in HDMI.

If the monitor is connected to the HDMI port graphics card and if you still can't get the screen, try to please update the graphics card drivers and tables also re - map graphic if possible.

    UPDATE! : I had no sound.

    Mike,

    Disable the LogMeIn driver from Device Manager and check. There are a few reported issues where LogMeIn driver has disabled the aero thus also changed the screen resolution feature.

    -Click Start, and then press on and enter type Device Manager.
    -Double click on graphics cards to expand the video drivers.
    -Right-click on the LogMeIn mirror driver and then click on disable.
    -Restart the computer and see if that helps.

    You can try to uninstall the video drivers and then install the driver from the AMD website as given in my first answer.
    Note: it is there no trouble uninstalling the video driver. When the video driver is uninstalled, Windows starts with minimum VGA drivers. The resolution of the screen (icons on the screen) may look bigger, but after installing the latest video drivers, the screen resolution will be back to normal.

    Please try the following steps and answer results.

  • connect a 2nd monitor in order to expand the workspace

    All the people who are sitting next to my wife to work hung a 2nd monitor at their consoles portable to give them the extra monitor space to work in. My wife now has a 2nd monitor and a cable which is necessary for the two screens can be connected at the same time - just as they are. They are all connected to the network at work.

    But how she has set up in Windows? No work can tell her what to do to implement. Please be as specific as possible non-tech in your answer, that is, do not assume that I don't know!

    Sorry if my post has been in the wrong place. It is a portable Windows XP which is a HP Elite. So, what do we do?

    XP...  Make sure you have the same image on the computer laptop and external monitor by using the Fn + F toggle key that I mentioned in my previous post. Right-click on an empty area of the desktop.  Left click on properties.  Click the settings tab.  You should see two monitors.  Click on identify.  The external monitor should show that monitor 2.  Click on the representation of the screen on the screen.  You should see below just a checkbox to «Expand my screen...» ' check that, to ensure that the resolution above this area is compatible with the external monitor and OK outside.  You should now see the Office extended to the external monitor.  Windows can be slid toward the new monitor and used as an extension of the screen of the laptop.
     
    Let me know if this can help, or if you have any other questions.
  • I'm having a lot of problems with Dreamweaver CC on my 2nd monitor.

    I can't open new files or create new files... the pane is not displayed. Works fine on my Macbook Pro screen, but not on the 2nd monitor using Thunderbolt. I also have a lot of weird behavior when you attempt to change the code. The selection jumps around... I tried to uninstall and reinstall fresh, but still having the same issue. Does anyone else know this?

    Hey Jon - and everyone who can find this thread... After all, you were a little reason as to the related nature.

    I found a "work around" for dual monitor problems I described above. Once you start Dreamweaver for the 1st time, drag the window to your 2nd monitor and then to put your mobile PC to sleep for one second. Once he wakes up to the top, the problems disappeared. Note: This must be repeated each time that you start the app, if I let him just on a lot.

    AGAIN - for the $$$ spent on Adobe and Apple products... this type of problem is simply not acceptable. Step up!

    I can stream movies on my PC using the desktop PC monitor. But when I unplug the monitor and use a PC to TV HDMI cable I get the video but the audio now... Suggestions?

    Thanks for the file INF. I ck'ed for driver updates and I have the latest drivers installed.  I got the sound working on the TV by hanging the audio output of the PC to the entrance of the TV with the HDMI cable in place for video. It's the simplest solution to this problem, so I took it.

    By the way, I have a Dell 620 with windows 7.

  • How to install and run a 2nd monitor

    How to fix, install, or run a 2nd monitor of my laptop? Windows Vista

    Hello

    Do not forget to check with your system manufacturer, the documentation online and the drivers and their
    Forums (if any).

    Your laptop should have a video which will allow to another monitor be hung and more
    the built in LCD. You then decide if you want that the monitors to display different
    programs or be used as a large screen where you can move programs from one screen
    to the other.

    Of course your system, a video camera and its drivers have to support with a 2nd monitor.

  • 2nd monitor problems with Photoshop CS4 and CC

    I'm on a quest to solve a problem with my second monitor when using Photoshop. When I hit F in photoshop to switch between display modes or when I Zoom in or out this happens:

    IMG_2010.JPG

    OK, well it is turned on its side, but you get the point. Until very recently, I used OS x 10.6.8 with Photoshop CS4 with no problems but ran into some problems with applications etc so I upgraded to Yosemite. That's when the problem started. In order to solve what I did a clean install of Mavericks in the hope that Yosemite was too new and that he had not brought bugs. Then I reinstalled CS4 there more this problem, but another problem just as boring. the profile for the 2nd monitor appears so desaturated and terrible that I can't use it to edit, despite several attempts to recalibrate.

    Out of curiosity I tried the trial of CC in Photoshop to see if the problem of mosaic has been fixed, but it wasn't. Right now looked at color, but mosaic problem. Here is the info on my computer:

    Screen Shot 2015-02-04 at 4.01.28 PM.png

    I changed in system preferences > energy saver > graphics for better quality, but nothing has changed. In Photoshop, I tried Preferences > performance > the GPU settings > advanced settings > changed in Basic drawing and that did not solve the problem either. Any ideas?

    10.10 MacOS still has a number of video driver bugs, some causing display corruption and others causing accidents.

    Apple is aware of these driver problems and work on solutions.

    Turning off the use of Photoshop GPU can help.

    But if you need the GPU features, you can return to a stable version of MacOS.

  • Hi, Just loaded PS13 elements on a new mac and can not move my current projects on a 2nd monitor for easier modifications. I'm used to be able to do this in my old PS 8. Someone knows how to do that PS 13?

    Thanks for any help - and a very Happy 2015! Dennis

    If you mean having the image in full screen on a monitor and the window PSE with all menus and controls on the other, go to Edition / Preferences / general and check the box "allow floating documents in expert mode. Then (as long as you are in Expert mode) you can drag the different windows around from anywhere.

  • With the help of a 2nd monitor with HP ENVY bow 27-k009 TouchSmart all-in-One desktop PC

    I would use a 2nd monitor with my HP all-in-one, but I can't figure out how to do this.  Our it guy says it can be done by using a VGA cord DMI but it does not work.  An another computer guy told me to get a USB cord with a graphics driver and technology at Best Buy told me that it is not possible to use a 2nd monitor with this all-in-one specific.  Please let me know if it is possible and how I would go to do.

    Here are the specifications of your HP ENVY tilted 27-k009 TouchSmart all-in - One desktop PC. Based on the specifications, this model, is a video output any. The HDMI port on the side is strictly an ENTRY;

    3 HDMI input

    To connect your computer to an external monitor, you will need to buy an adapter USB-to-video, as EVGA UV plus + UV39 or many other cards on the market.

  • Dell Inspiron 3043 All in One-2nd monitor?

    My dell is not detect a 2nd monitor when I connect it to my Acer monitor.  I tried to use the VGA cable with a HDMI adapter.  I also tried to use a DVI cable to HDMI.  The Acer monitor only has VGA and DVI - D connections?  Is there another way to connect the 2nd monitor?

    I have the Dell Inspiron 3043 all in one

    You can consider using a USB2 > DVI - D or USB2 > adapter VGA to connect the second monitor, but they are not exactly cheap.

    And if you buy one of these adapters, make sure that the one you get can clone (1) internal display, (2) extend the desktop on 2 screens and (3) show 2 different screens simultaneously and is compatible with any version of Windows that you are using.
