  • HDMI to TV: invalid format

    When I connect my Pavilion dv7 to the lcd TV LG with HDMI to the TV says "invalid format".  The sound works. How can I get the TV to show what is on my screen?  It worked fine until about 2 weeks ago.

    I have already tried:

    1 installation of the last Center ACTED catalyst

    2. change the screen resolution

    3. make the laptop is configured for double or projector display

    4. how to get the latest graphics driver ACTED

    5. turn off the TV and laptop and reboot before and after having connected an HDMI cable.

    It is a laptop problem, not a problem of TV. The TV is grateful that it is connected to the laptop (if I use F4 to return to the display only, the message "invalid format" TV changes to 'no signal'.)

    Hello

    You can try to reinstall Windows Vista using the recovery partition, if it still exists:

To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

  • No sound when laptop computer connecting to the HDTV

    I used to be on windows vista and often connected my laptop to my HD TV and the sound would play through its speakers. Since the same laptop upgrade to windows 7, now plays the video through the TV and the sound on the speakers to laptop. She did something to my sound card and how to fix it? Have tried all the suggestions on the windows support and no luck. Thank you

    You also pass your specific audio devices to W7 drivers when you went from Vista to W7?

    Assuming that your mobile phone is compatible W7: go to the manufacturer's website, find your particular computer download page and install the correct audio drivers W7.
    If it isn't, then there will be none, then download and install in compatibility mode Vista drivers. You may (or may not) recover some features more.
