Here's how:
a. right-click on an empty space on the desktop and click on the screen resolution.
b. at the top, you will see the current main screen with the Start Menu in the lower left.
NOTE: If you are unsure which monitor who is, then click on the button to display the number on the screen to match with identity.
c. at the top, click on the numbered display device (ex: monitor, projector or TV HDMI) you want to make your primary display to have its established border highlight.
d. check the brand that my hand display and click OK to apply.

    * Original title: HDMI Signal

    Hello. My nam is Kieu. I have a problem and and we hope you guys can helo me. I just bought a Gateway desktop all-in-one computer and tried to connect it to the TV via the HDMI port, but I could not get signal on my TV. Help, please.

    Hi David,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum!

    According to the description of the problem, it seems that you are unable to get the signal when you connect the TV to HDMI port.

    I will certainly help you with this issue.

    Here are some steps that you can try in order to solve the problem.

    Step 1. First you need a video cable to make the physical connection. For a better image quality, you need to connect the computer to the TV using standard VGA ports or via DVI to HDMI Cable provided your TV supports these ports.

    Step 2. Open thedisplay settings' ' in your Vista computer and Activate the output to the TV screen. You can reflect the content of your computer on the TV or extend the display as a double screen control.

    Step 3 Pick up your TV remote and switch to "External inputs" in the menu. You need to change the value by default "Video 1" to a different selection which may be "HDMI 1" or "video 2" depending on how you made the connection. "

    Important: Make sure you connect the cable to the TV before turning on the computer, because sometimes it may not recognize the external display.

    You may also change the resolution of your TV screen using the display settings in your panel of control remains the image may appear distorted.

    Hi all

    When I connect my external hard drive to my laptop, it is detected and the icon for the material appears in the taskbar background. But when I go to my computer, it happens that does not. I can always open other programs etc that are not related to the hard drive, but nothing to do with the hard drive "fails". As soon as I plug it on, the laptop starts responding again. I tried it on another laptop and the same thing happens.

    Any ideas?

    Hi Wendall81,

    -How long have you had this problem?

    Follow the steps below:

    Method 1:

     

    Step 1: Boot in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

    See Advanced startup options (including safe mode) for more information about starting in safe mode.

    Step 2: If the problem does not occur in safe mode, you can put your system to boot (in normal mode) to solve the problem.

    See How to solve a problem by performing a boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

    Method 2:

     

    Run a check disk on the external hard drive.

    For instructions, see check your drive for errors .

    Note: If any bad sectors are found by running the check disk utility and recovery of the attempt of bad sectors option is checked when checking the disk for errors, data in the bad sector can be lost as they tried to recover bad sectors. Gokul - Microsoft Support

  • When I try to connect with my wireless laptop will connect only to Local access. If I connect the laptop to the router with the ethernet cable, it works very well.

    VIsta - Local access only

    HI -.
    I recently moved.   I use the same router from my old apartment and I had no problem connection in the past.   Since I moved I have a new Time Warner modem (Cisco) and the modem works fine.

    The router also works very well I'm able to connect with my iPhone and IPad without any problem.

    But when I try to connect with my wireless laptop, it will only connect to Local access.    If I connect the laptop to the router with the ethernet cable, it works very well.

    It's a Dell Studio 15 with Vista.

    The computer is able to connect to wifi to other places without any problem, but for some reason that I can't connect home.   I tried to reset the modem and the router several times, but that did not help.   I tried the option repair & diagnose several times but it doesn't work.

    I tried to look for other solutions online and tried to disable IPv6, and while it helped some and I was able to connect wireless, the computer ran so slowly that it didn't seem like a good solution.

    This has been very frustrating.   Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.

    Take a look at step 6 in this article that give more details about it:

    Warning: some manufacturers use F10 for recovery of the system.

    (b) glance to "Drive Configuration", "Boot order" or similar

    (c) check the second drive the first boot device CD/DVD and hard drive.

    (d) to save the settings and exit.

  • Windows 7 and bios sees not the hard drive, but when I connect the hard drive to the USB with an adapter, I see directories and files

    Original title: windows 7 and bios does not see the hard drive. but when I connect the hard drive to the USB with an adapter, I see directories and files... Ive a hp Pavilion, what to do?

    Check the BIOS for hard drive setting.

    Make sure that you do not connect the drive to a SATA/RAID port.

    Old IDE drives - check the jumper on the drive (use "Cable Select" as a starting point), the BIOS must also be set in legacy/compatibility/IDE mode. Note: If you currently use the AHCI mode, then switch to IDE mode may cause Windows to boot.

  • How to display the login page after having connected the laptop WiFi

    Hello

    I checked into a hotel that offers Wifi access.

    The first day, I connected to the Wifi where I select the appropriate name of Wifi since connection manager and also enter the security key that was provided to me. The navigation was very good.

    But on the times later, once that I selected the name of Wifi is no longer is asking for the password. The report shows 'connected' (to correct Wifi Hotspot) but also says -online access Internet No.. (although the connection strength is 'Excellent').

    I have taken note of what happens sometimes when I connect to my Office Wifi as well. Sometimes, need not the password, he said still "connected" but also "no Internet access", and I'm not able to navigate.

    With the diagnosis has not helped.

    Y at - it a solution to the problem for example force Windows to display the password prompt.

    Thank you

    Hello, Mr. Ray,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that, even after be connected to the network once chosen, no internet is available. Generally, you are asked the password for the first time and the next time when you try to connect to the same WiFi network, it connects automatically without the password. However, there are several other reasons for not being able to access the internet thought that the device is connected to the same network successfully.

    I suggest to refer to the article below and check if the problem still persists.

    Wireless and wired network problems

    If the problem persists and you try to use the Wi - Fi connection in the hotel and office, this network would be connected to a domain or has administrator privileges. This is why I would recommend posting your query in the TechNet forums as your question would be better suited for IT Pro audience.
