Z50 does not detect second monitor HDMI

I recently purchased the Lenovo Z50 - 70 with 16 GB of ram and nvidia 840 m video card.

Today I tried to connect the laptop to my LG 47LA6208-ZA, but the laptop does not recognize a second monitor. When I try to detect that another monitor nothing find it.

I don't know there is no problem with the tv or hdmi cable, cause another pc with a cable hdmi even on the same port hdmi works perfectly.

Any ideas what could be the problem here? I have already updated all the drivers.

However, I do not know on what card video the hdmi port is on, the nvidia or intel on board.

Any help would be appreciated!

It turns out that the hdmi cable is the problem after all! Which is really strange, cause there is no problem with the other pc. However, I am very happy that this is resolved! Thanks for the support!

  • Windows 7 does not detect external monitor!

    Hi I have a huge dilemma!

    My laptop does not recognize the external monitor. Earlier in the day, he detected the external monitor and perfectly well worked through to extend, in doubles, you name it. However, after restarting my computer, I was unable to get the external display to be recognized...

    I use a laptop Lenovo y470 and nvidia gt 550 m 64-bit. I've updated the grahpics card but in vain...

    The way I have it plugged into the external monitor is using a hdmi cable to connect the laptop to a monitor for a DVI-HDMI adapter. Basically, the dvi port became a port hdmi with this adapter.  its dvi - d.

    I think that restarting the computer developed a few updates and the graphics card only connects via VGA or HDMI and DVI not? I'm not sure... I'd love any idea of a solution.

    Hello

    If you do not see an option named multiple displays in your display settings, then Windows isn't detecting a second monitor plugged into your desktop computer. Or else, it does not detect an external monitor plugged into your laptop. When Windows detects this monitor, it will appear in the drop-down list next to the screen. If you do not see that what listed there, try click on Detect.

    Make sure that the monitor you want to extend your desktop is turned on and plugged the correct video port on your computer. You may also need to select the correct source labeled on the controls of your monitor to ensure that the monitor is using the correct video port. For more information, consult the manual of your monitor or go to the manufacturer's Web site.

  • T400 and Advanced Mini Dock - does not detect DVI monitor

    I have a T400 with integrated graphics and Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, and I recently bought an Advanced Mini Dock for it.  I have a Dell 1800FP monitor connected to the dock via the DVI output.  When I anchor the T400, the system does not detect the external monitor.  If I go to the resolution of the screen and click on detect, it does not appear.  The weird part is that if I reboot then than in the dock, when the system comes back he * is * detect and use the external monitor.

    Any ideas what's happening?  Other equipment connected by the base (USB, Ethernet cable devices) all work very well.

    I think I solved this problem.  I uninstalled my video driver and installed the latest version from the Lenovo Web site (which was more recent than the one found by Lenovo System Update).  Now my system properly detects the external monitor when I attach to the docking station.

  • Windows 98 does not recognize second monitor

    Hello

    I am trying to get Windows 98 to recognize an old graphics card so I can use two monitors. I installed an old map of Weitek power 9001 and allegedly installed Windows drivers for it. I plugged the second monitor, and nothing happens. When I go to display properties, it only shows two monitors. Is the graph incompatible card or what?

    You need to download the drivers from the graphics card company Web site directly.  The default Windows drivers do not support the two monitors.

  • Windows does not detect the external monitor after Blue Screen of Death

    Hi guys,.

    I currently have a problem with my second monitor, I installed the monitor (Acer G276HLA), it worked perfectly for about a month. Today, when I was working with SolidWorks, blue screen of death appeared 2 times and I have to restart my laptop. After the reboot, Windows does not detect my second monitor more, I tried my best but no luck, please me have this problems.

    I use an HDMI cable to connect the laptop and the screen...

    Best regards

    Hyouka

    Personal laptop is limited to the installation of other equipment, graphic monitor (s) push resources. If ram memory

    is maximally, & the BIOS settings are set to a different monitor, Direct X updates, graphics software are updated, then

    We should be able to run a reg monitor... Chk, go in run or cmd, type: DXDIAG run Direct X.

    Also, the BIOS settings are critical, uninstall the default, add new ones.

  • Does not detect the hdmi cable more (very specific scenario)

    Well then...

    Got a monitor 15-HD to hdmi cable and a mac laptop (13 in the retina).

    So when I got all that I put it all together and it worked. I left because there a little bit, everything is plugged in and did not return for some time, so my mac fell asleep at the time wherever I went. Disconnected everything to relax on the couch. I went back and all plugged together again except that now the mac does not detect the cable. Tried a bunch of things with it. Restart, unplug the unit, detection manually, etc...

    Since the monitor is used and recently purchased cable, I thought time to them to test first. Got a laptop PC and plugged into the cable. The monitor and cable worked.

    Tried to connect my mac to the TV with my ps4′s hdmi since I did that a lot before. Also works.

    The problem is literally the combination between the cable and the mac. Which is a problem since I got the reason was to serve as my mac.

    During my research, I saw that specifically leaving the connected hdmi where sleeps your laptop can spoil it supposed to be... I saw it one time so idk if it's true, but it happened to me... and no, it wasn't really a solution when I came across that. Tried Googling this specific problem, but did not meet anything since my problem seems so specific.

    Fast forward to the next day and tried again now that both had little respite between them. Plugged into the HDMI and my laptop starts fading and return to a black screen. The screen would go black usually and so the laptop screen and the monitor would appear once again. sauf_que this time that there not, he just kept it and the monitor has not changed (Yes) it's). Not wanting to let him do that too long I unplugged and tried a different port with an adapter, I have also, since I did 3 holes I could use this for might as well try them all again. But unfortunately, I don't have it trigger anything again. So I went through another round of troubleshooting to try to make it work, but here I am, trying to see if anyone else has had this problem and solved. I am back to wait another day I guess and just hope. If not idk what to do, except maybe to get another cable? I don't know if this would solve it well.

    Hello

    You solved this problem?
    Could you install system 8.1 Windows on this SSD drive?

    I think that the installation of additional drivers during the setting procedure isn't necessary since Win 8.1 should already contain pilots essential.
    From my point of view of the few, there could be a compatibility issue (maybe the SSD firmware update could solve that problem).

    What another SSD disk usage? You have the same problem with other SSDS from other manufacturers?

    Your comments would be appreciated.

  • Windows 7 does not detect not PnP monitor

    Windows 7 does not detect a PnP (Samsung 2220wm) monitor when the monitor is connected through a KVM switch. Therefore, I can't set the correct screen resolution. The monitor is correctly detected when connected directly to the pc.

    This just started recently. Before that the monitor has been correctly detected, even through the KVM switch.

    Nothing installed that I remember. I'll contact Samsung - there have been similar problems with their monitors.

  • HP Solution Center does not detect that I've added a second printer

    I am running Vista and have the center of solutions HP (latest version) installed and have HP 2575xi connected network.

    HP Solution Center recognizes my HP 2575 x, and everything works.

    But now I have an extra F4280 HP I want to add in via the USB port on the computer.

    First I tried to install it just just pilots F4280, hoping that the HP Solution Center would detect the new printer, but it didn't.

    Then, I tried the "Full Install" from the installation disk supplied with the F4280. But he determined that I already have all the software installed, so it didn't install anything.

    Center of HP solutions certainly looks like he can handle multiple printers (it has the tabs at the top). But I can't seem to recognize the new printer.

    I could try to uninstall and reinstall. But I'm worried that HP Solution Center does not detect the 2575xi since it is a network printer.

    How can I know the HP Solution Center to detect and add my new printer?

    Thank you.

    When you install the F4280 software, and it is said that the latest version of the software is already installed, then it should give you an option to 'add a device', no?

  • (Redirected) Venue 11 pro - does not detect a different view

    Hello

    I have several of these tablets pro 11 place and none of the others have this problem.  It is connected to a dock and an external monitor via hdmi to vga converter.  It does not detect the external display.  The others work fine.  This one had the Board replaced a few months ago due to a charging problem.  It is not a driver issue I tried to update, and others are not on an updated driver.  Have also been downgraded to see if it was the update.  I was wondering if maybe the replacement card is defective or if there is something else I might be missing.  Have updated the firmware on the docking station to resolve the fact of disconnect as well.  Any thoughts would be much appreciated

    The behavior you describe is normal - the HP Support Assistant is a program "per computer", in other words, each program HPSA lies and keeps track of just a computer on which the program is installed.

  • Cannot start Windows, Windows Setup does not detect the hard disk, Bootmgr is misiing

    I have a few problems on my laptop [Acer 3810 t]

    -The first problem
    My mobile give me screen "cannot start windows' who have 2 choices: run the Startup Repair tool and boot normally. I chose to fix it, but nothing happens and stuck "starting windows" and gives unmountable boot volume 'blue screen '. the Dungeon of blues screen appear (for laptop is a not restart). So I turned off my phone and turn it back on it. the "could not start" screen again and I chose to start normally. but the result is negative. My portable Dungeon cannot start windows. Because of that I am using the advanced boot option and choose all the boot type such asit cannot load the safemode, last configuration etc, but the result is the same, you cannot start windows. in safe mode, its stuck in loading fileinfo.sys. I do not give up to try again with the advanced boot option. until I have a bad situation. My laptop can only 1 file in safe mode and blues screen do not appear again (my laptop only return at the beginning of start or restart)

    -The second problem
    because it cant solved, I want to reinstall my laptop. My OS is Vista 32 bit (pre-installed). I want to install the new operating system, windows 7. I use Dsik Flash bootable USB to install Windows 7. But in the BIOS, it is detected as a USB HDD. So I set my BIOS to load USB HDD to the first order. the installation can be done, but only until the "start Setup" screen and its deadlock. I have it wait up to an hour, but nothing happens. So I'm going to BIOS, change SATA mode to IDE mode AHCI. Then load the USB and go "installation program start screen. but the new problem is the installation of window does not detect my hard drive. So I can not choose the place to install the operating system. I have to load the driver, but I did not. Again to load the configuration to AHCI and IDE, until I get my HDD can detected in IDE mode. So I think I can move easily, I choose custom installation and choose the hard drive to install the operating system. But unfortunately, at the beginning of the process, after choosing the OS, the Installer gives error if installation location the installation failed. (I forgot the error message)

    -The third problem
    So far, I can't spend 'startup begins' as well in mode IDE and AHCI. Also bootmgr in my hard disk is missing, so I can't go to move the startup repair or the startup option in my HDD as before
