Projector not recognized by Windows when it is connected to the DVI port

I have a projector with a HDMI input. I ran a cable my video card from the pc Windows Vista from the exit to the my projector DVI HDMI input. Windows does not recognize what it and the projector wont recognize that there is a signal output on DVI-d port. I plugged my regular LCD monitor in the local port, and it works very well. The problem is that for my regular LCD monitor, I want to use the RGB and DVI connection for my projector. Can anyone help?

Hi Mauriceyo,

Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand from the description of the problem, you have problems connecting the projector on Windows 7 computer. We're here to help and guide you in the right direction.

I suggest to download and install the latest drivers from the chipset manufacturer's Web site and install it on the computer:
Update driver that does not work properly

Try the following steps:

(a) open the window customization by right click on the blank desktop and choose "Customize".

(b) in the to do list click the link "to connect to a projector or other external display.

(c) the Windows Mobility Center displays, presentation settings box click the Activate button to turn on the projector

(d) now your screen will be displayed on the projection screen on the big screen as well as your own computer screen

(e) If you want to change the presentation options click the icon projector inside the box of presentation settings

(f) the presentation settings Windows appears, if you have turned on the projector, that 'that I am currently giving a presentation' is checked

(g) when you're giving a presentation your computer stay awake and notification system are turned off by default, the screen saver is disabled

(h) you can also adjust the volume of system to show different wallpapera in that you usually use, then the presentation ends and you turn off the projector returns regular your wallpapers

(i) If you are not sure what are connected click on the button "Connected displays...". "on the bottom of the existing window

It will be useful.

    Hello Graboots,

    Thank you for your message.  You can plug your printer on another computer, in order to exclude the possibility that the problem lies in the printer?  You can try using a different cable, for this rule as well.  Since it is a question of recognition, we remove the external devices before software troubleshooting.  Do you get anything when you plug the printer (ie. a tinkle of connection)?  Please let us know, we are looking forward to hear back on your part.
    See you soon

  • HP P1102W does not print and does not open when it is connected through the USB port on the road

    I bought this printer and I set it with a fixed IP address. After a few months, he has simply stopped working. So I decided to connect to the console and I wasn't able to do it either. I printed the test page and the ip address is 0.0.0.0. I, then, tried to plug in the USB cable on my computer and the drive that contains the software, it does not appear. He is a second and then disappears.

    I would like to get a solution to this problem before I throw this piece of 'material' on the discharge.

    Thank you!

    The 1102W uses what is called USB wireless.  The installation of the printer is the only way to recover the printer on a network in this case.  There is no place to set the IP address without getting a DHCP address first, which is not the case here.

    First, retrieve the default network printer.

    Restore the default wireless settings.
    a. turn off the product.
    b. press and hold the wireless switch and the
    Cancel button and then turn on the product.
    c. hold the button until all lights flash in unison.
    and then release the keys.

    This should reset the default settings of the network.

    Then, uninstall all the software of the computer printer.

    Reinstall the printer from here click on software and Driver Downloads and select your operating system.

    It will take a computer on the same network and USB cable.  Click network installation and connect the USB cable when prompted.

  • CarPlay audio quality of the voice when it is connected through the USB port is poor vs Bluetooth on Pioneer AVH-4200NEX

    Hello!

    I recently installed a Pioneer AVH-4200NEX unit, I was super excited to improve my car with the support of CarPlay, and everything works great except for one thing.  When I connect my iPhone (6s +) to the unit via a USB cable and a standard phone call, the audio quality is very bad - hail, very downsampled, and metallic sounding compared to the use of Bluetooth via the unit to pioneer for the same phone call (I'm on LTE, using HD voice, although the quality difference is quite noticeable on the calls not HD and on the 4 G calls).  I looked for an answer to this question, but the best that I can find mention of limited USB bandwidth and try to juggle than the bandwidth for the rest of the CarPlay experience, although I don't buy not because audio via the iPhone connected with USB playback is just as clear that it is through Bluetooth.  So my question is: How can I submit a bug report Apple about this behavior and (b) do you have other CarPlay users also be known this recent problem on a unit of Pioneer NEX (AppRadio included)?  It would be great if this is a bug of Pioneer for which they can release a firmware update, I'm just worried that it is a codec problem specified by the CarPlay, so non repairable.

    Thank you!

    Hello served,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I understand that when you use the USB cable for your iPhone in your car with the audio CarPlay is mediocre. I know how it is important for you to hear your calls clearly. In a situation like this, I recommend the steps described in the following article to help solve the problem.

    Configure CarPlay to use with your iPhone

    Specifically the section to get help:

    Get help

    If CarPlay does not work as you expect, here's what you can check. After each step, try to use CarPlay again.

    1. Make sure that Siri is turned on.
    2. Restart your iPhone and your car. Depending on your car, you can see the CarPlay home screen when you turn it on. If you do not, look for the CarPlay logo on the screen of your car.
    3. If possible, connect your iPhone to a different USB port in your car.
    4. Try a different lightning to a USB cable. Make sure that the cable is certified.
    5. Update to the latest version of iOS.
    6. Check the manual using your car. You may need to install updates of firmware for your stereo.

  • Stor.e slim not recognized by Windows 8.1

    Hello

    A Stor.e slim external HARD drive is not recognized in Windows 8.1 (no problem with Windows 7). When it is plugged in, it s shown as a device not recognized. Driver is requested but not found.

    Hello

    Stor.E Slim external HARD drive is a 2.5 HDD USB 3.0 and 900mA power it requires to work correctly.

    I suppose that there is nothing wrong with this HARD drive, but with your laptop.

    8/8.1 win requires different drivers and you will probably need to install a suitable driver in order to get the USB ports work correctly (USB 3.0 as well as the driver additional chipset would be also necessary).

  • Yoga Pro 2 - display not recognized in windows (hardware or driver problem?)

    Out of warranty by a month!

    Yoga Pro 2-256 gb, installed a new wireless card a month ago. Windows 8.1

    The touchscreen still work while the screen is black.

    System restarted after the mode 'sleep', in my opinion.

    The Lenovo logo is displayed, seems to load Windows, but when windows loads (I don't see it so it is a hypothesis of load) drafts of the screen and the black light is on.

    Can I connect an external monintor that connects after the return from sleep mode (odd). Who then off the backlight.

    When the external monitor, the internal screen is not yet recognized by windows.

    When I boot in safe mode, the internal display works fine with of course limited capabilities.

    I rebooted on the support site display drivers.

    Right now my internal monitor is not recognized by windows and is dark, and I can use an external monitor.

    Someone at - he of the clues as to what my happen? Hardware, driver etc?

    Can what information I provide?

    It is a pretty weird problem with contradictory observations.

    (1) screen working in Mode safe but not regular boot. (So not the hardware problem)

    (2) display on an external monitor in normal mode. (So, no drivers issue)

    Have you installed the wireless card yourself? You unplug the cable from the screen during the installation of the card?

    Could you re - open and check that all connections are good?

    The Wi - Fi card works well?

    I also recommend a complete reset of the laptop to eliminate the possibility that it is a corrupt driver. You can use the NOVO button to reset your laptop. Make sure you make a backup on an external drive for your personal files.
