HDMI output have suddenly stopped. Pavilion a6340a

Hello

I posted here in hope that someone can give me some advice.

The system in Question is:

  • HP Pavilion a6340a desktop computer. Double heart
  • Vista 32 bit SP2.
  • NVIDIA GF8400GS
  • COMPRO Video mate Vista TV Capture card.
  • 2 GB of RAM.

It is a bit of an older system, I guess, but it plays well as a HTPC for a while now. It has a small LCD monitor connected via the standard connection and a large flat screen Toshiba TV connected via HDMI. He did a great job.

Today, the HDMI output just stopped. The Toshiba TV again to survey/is visible in the Nvidia Control Panel and the Vista Control Panel when it is connected to the HDMI. the implementation of the features of multiple monitors are available. But there is nothing happening on TV.

Things has tried so far.

  • Two different Cables HDMI - nothing.
  • Connected my Pavilion Notebook DV6 on the same HDMI port on the TV - works fine.
  • Installed the latest driver from Nvidia - nothing.
  • Tried all the three HDMI ports on the TV - nothing.
  • Physically, shot the video card in the computer, he dusted off and reassembled it. -Nothing.

I don't understand. Could this be a processor problem, or I have to pay for a new video card? Is it possible to test the output from the HDMI port with a multimeter or something? I do not understand why it would stop just like that. I just installed Vista SP2 a few weeks ago, but it was working well after I did.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. The system is out of warranty, of course, but it has been a great HTPC for me. I stuck a blu - ray inside player and I was about to give him another 2 GB of RAM.

Kind of useless now, without HDMI.

IM at a loss. What else can I do to verify that Exchange of the graphics card?

Hello

The short answer is: replace the video card VNvidia GF8400GS. If you happen to have another video card around laying which has an output and HDMI, then install it for a test. It's the fastest way to solve the problem.

Best regards

    Hey mark them... I don't know that I would say that it's confusing for a DBA is not knowing what is MOS. I've always just thought of her as MetaLink, but then recently Oracle has started calling this MOS. The name fits very well in my opinion, especially after referring to him as MetaLink for so many years.

    It's a simple change of people will have to get used to. In fact, many stores have same Support Oracle (as hard as it is to believe). Other stores rarely use (as hard as it is to believe). Personally, my first place of the answers to the questions is Google, and OTN and if all other fails, MetaLink. Of course, he must go to MetaLink for all upgrades, patches, and power supplies.

  • Can someone explain why all my Spry assets on a website online have suddenly stopped working?

    Can someone explain why all my Spry assets on a website online have stopped responding? I checked that Spry CSS and JS files are in place. Then checked the files on Dreamweavers mode live view and they do not work here either. It was fine a few weeks ago that it's almost as if the web browsers stopped tearing Spry, for example, the links for the collapsible panels are not yet recognized as links.

    I use 'old' on Dreamweaver CS4 spry assets (if that makes a difference). Active Spry tabbed panels are removable panels.

    Thanks for your help.

    Manufacturers should come after the library. In other words, you have moved libraries below links

    
    

    Move high to the bottom of your page and everything is fine.

    This brings me to ask why you do not use SpryCollapsiblePanelGroup as in Spry/SpryCollapsiblePanelGroup.html to the adobe/Spry master · GitHub

  • After you create a site in recent months, the effects of scroll have suddenly stopped working in preview mode and publication.

    Hi all

    I fortunately worked on the Web site a page of simple Parallax for the last few months working on it and style stable thanks to a test site of Business Catalyst using my creative cloud account. After you open today to make final changes, I see everyone with the exception of a single element with scrollbars attached effects were completely missing in preview mode. After having published the site again to the location of the test are lack there as well and I cannot work out why it happened. Very frustrating as I had just reach a point where I was happy with the content. I even restored a backup version from two weeks ago, when the site was work and site the same items were missing when they appear just as usual in design mode.

    Any thoughts anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you very much

  • I want to stop Dell Dock d3100 Audio HDMI output.

    I recently bought a d3100 dock and I use it to connect my Inspiron 13z with Windows 8.1 to multiple devices, including an HDMI monitor and stereo speakers.  It turns out that my monitor has built-in speakers and does not allow them to be disabled or cut.  They sound terrible, so I'd like to stop to send the audio signal to them.  Unfortunately, windows detects the Dell dock as a single USB audio device and I don't have the ability to send audio to the stereo output 3.5 mm without sending it also both HDMI outputs.

    If anyone has a suggestion on how to use the HDMI output for video without sending audio to the speakers on my monitor, please let me know.  There are HDMI cables that have an audio connection?

    Thank you, Chris.  It is not a Dell monitor that I'm connected, I use an Acer B273h.  I tried to watch the sounds-> playback settings in Windows.  The problem there is that the d3100 Dell presents itself as a single USB audio device.  There is no distinction between the 3.5 mm stereo output and HDMI audio output.

    However, I found a solution.  I remembered that HDMI and DVI have the same video encoding, and also, my monitor has a DVI input.  So, I picked up an HDMI cable to DVI, which now sends only video to my monitor.

    Problem solved!

  • his Pavilion dv7-6b55dx suddenly stopped working

    the sound on my Pavilion dv7-6b55dx has suddenly stopped working. External speakers work not at all and has failed the test tone. The headset works sometimes - for ex: I can play the same youtube video and audio work once and then again not at all.

    HP support system had run the updates from the previous night (I turned off computer later) so I wonder if this could be a problem?

    have audio beats and OS is Windows 7.

    Thanks for any help.

    Click on the link below. Enter your product number as that indicated on the Service tag on the bottom of the laptop (can be under the battery). You can also get the product number by pressing Fn + ESC key. After you enter the PN, click Next, then choose the software & Drivers.On the next page use the menu drop down to select your (probably Windows 7 64-bit) operating system. A list will fill with the drivers. Download & save the last Audio driver.

    OK if everything works before I would say that your Chair plastic causing an electrostatic discharge and it is going through your computer and causing spikes and he thinks that there is a surge and causing it to stop. You have to find a Chair not static plasic or you'll have a short-lived mobile soon. Touch the edge is a discharge electrostatic transfer into the computer and it detects more tension and stop to protect themselves. It's like walking with socks on the carpet a touch a doorknob in metal and you will allow a "Zap" is an electrostatic discharge and what id hit your laptop and it will make short work (pun intended) of you laptop.

    Hello:

    The only suggestion I can offer would be to try the AMD graphics driver, if you don't have already done.

    Your laptop is not supported by HP for W7 and especially not supported for 32-bit operating systems.

    http://support.AMD.com/en-us/download/mobile?OS=Windows%207%20-%2032

    As a last resort, try to manually install the W7 x 64 graphics driver from the support page and the driver of your laptop (sp66999).

    I explored the driver file, and there are 32-bit included in this file drivers.

When I try to check the ink levels it tells me that this printer is not available, try again later. I have a lot of ink. Have restarted printer and Mac Book Pro. Driver is up-to-date. Any thoughts?

    Reset the printer.  Turn the power off and then hold the # and 6 keys during and shortly after turning it on.
