HP Pavilion 23-q055na: connect a second monitor to an HP Pavilion 23-q055na all-in-one

Hello

I just bought a new HP Pavilion 23-q055na printer all in one and wonder if it is possible to connect a second monitor. It has an HDMI output, but my second monitor had a DVI connection (DVI - D single link).

It doesn't seem to be DVI to HDMI converters for sale online, but I don't want to lose my money if it's not going to work.

Anyone has any advice on the best way to connect a second monitor to this PC?

Thank you

Ali

Hi there @Haikugirl

The best choice for you would be a screen that supports a HDMI input you don't need to work with an adapter, at all.  However, there are adapters on the market due to the fact that many adapters are often necessary, and I used the flavors varied in many different situations with great success. In general, I would do some research on the specific device and the brand and are looking for comments before you plan to buy an adapter.

It can never be guaranteed that any device will work in all cases, but if you find a device from a renowned manufacturer, then chances are strongly in your favor.

I would like to begin by ensuring that the DVI input on the monitor works well, before considering an adapter. If it is intermittent in some way, then it is probably not your best choice.

Just my two cents. I hope it helps.

    I ordered, from hp store-still in production, a HP Pavilion - 27qe touchscreen all-in-one.  There are 10 Windows.  I would come down to Win7 Pro 64-bit (I can buy a legal copy of win7 and do a clean install).  I understand that I would lose some features like the touch screen, but I really prefer Win7.  I'm looking for info on how to do this?  For example, where to find the proper drivers (determine which and where to download to), BIOS etc.  Drivers listed on hp for this computer are for Win10 only, there is no Win7 drivers listed.  Of course I'd first recovery disks Win10, where I always want to go to the Win10 or if Win7 is not working properly.

    Any info/help appreciated.  My wife and I share one our computer at home with Win7 on it.  Me, my wife and probably would be better to use Win7 we are used and as.

  • Connect a second monitor to the all-in-one desire

    Please forgive my ignorance on this subject in advance.

    I just bought a HP Envy all-in-One.  Model 23o014; Product F3E94AA #ABA.  I am running Windows 8.1.   I'm very happy with my purchase so far.

    I also bought an AOC E2470Sw monitor and want to connect it as a second monitor to the all-in-One.

    AOC monitor has a VGA (?-15-pin) connection), but also has two HDMI inputs.  I THOUGHT (with the agreement of my distracted salesman) that I could connect the two with a HDMI connector on both machines, but I get a blank on the AOC screen when I try.

    What I am doing wrong?

    Thank you

    Hello...

    The HDMI connector on the base is an entry, not an output. For a second monitor, you will need to go with a USB to video card.

  • Connect a second monitor to ATI Radeon HD 5570

    Hi, I just got my HP Pavillion Elite PHE-360z and it works great so far.  My question is that I have two monitors that I would use with the card.  The first monitor is hooked up okay using the DVI connection.  However, the card has also 2 other slots and I don't know what kind of cables go inside.  Looks like it is HDMI and don't know what the other is.  I have a simple cable VGA to my screen else I want to connect to this card, but do not know how to do it.  Any advice would be appreciated!

    Tim

    This article should help you with the connection of two monitors.

    Another your monitor handles other types of connection next to the VGA?

    The video for the HPE-360z 5570 card has DVI, HDMI and Display Port.  You must also have a VGA to PC adapter.

    A Display Port to VGAshould get the VGA signal to your second monitor.  I have not tried this type of adapter.

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone could tell me if it is even possible to plug a second monitor HP ENVY Beats all-in-one desktop PC, because I'm trying to connect my TV as a second monitor via HDMI, and I tried everything I could, but came empty-handed?

    Hello

    What is the product/model of your AIO machine? I have a lot of cases, you cannot use HDMI port to connect to a TV, because it's the HDMI IN port. You need USB - HDMI converter/adapter to connect to a TV (or monitor).

    Kind regards.

    Hello world

    I'm new to the forum. I just bought a HP Pavilion all-in-one 23-a304a Office P E9V70AA.

    One thing that I forgot to check was I can plug in a laptop and use the HP as the DISPLAY monitor, sometimes I work from home and using the larger screen would be great, but I've noticed that there are no HDMI or other video ports on the desktop.

    The thoughts and thanks in advance.
