Windows 7: HDMI support in Motherboard

FredeGail · 19 May 2012

Hello SF.

I'd like to connect a TV with an HDMI cable, in an HDMI input in the motherboard. However, it doesn't really get any sort of signal. I'd connect it to the gfx-card if it actually had an ordinary HDMI input instead of the mini-HDMI.
I tried downloading the latest vga-drivers on ASUS' website, but without luck. I've also tried to plug out the main monitor connected to the gfx-card and just having the HDMI in the Motherboard, to the TV- but again without luck.

To make a long story short, how do I use the display inputs in my ASUS Motherbaord.

(Check my specs).
Best Regards,
FredeGail.

Have you looked in BIOS to make sure you have the onboard graphics enabled?

If so, is the onboard graphics listed in Windows Device Manager (without errors)?

I've looked around in my BIOS but I couldn't find it. Do you have any experience with ASUS Bios management? Likely under Advanced but I couldn't seem to find it, only USB charge enables and stuff like that.

Should I switch this one maybe?

I'm having difficulty getting your MB Manual right now

Look in Windows Device Manager / Display Adapters and see if it listed there without errors.

Nah nothing. Thanks for your support anyway.
I'll check the manual.

Change it to D-SUB/HDMI.

You're trying to use HDMI (not DVI) so that may be the issue

You can get the manual here

I haven't tried what you want, but you need to enable the iGPU. (Advanced, System Agent.) Maybe "iGPU Multi-Monitor".

You'll also need the Intel graphics drivers.

The manual i got has screen prints for the newer UEFI BIOS screens.

Your screen print above is for the older BIOS setup screen...
It also shows "AMD Cool & Quiet" which i wouldn't expect to see for your MB/Intel CPU...so i'm a bit confused...

If that bios picture is what is in yours, you want to use the onboard with a dedicated video card (and it has to be an ATI/AMD card at that), you need to enable the Surround View option.
