Monitor problem after installing clean Windows 7.
Hello,
I was having some problems with my PC, I posted a BSOD thread on here that was solved but then started having software lag issues so gave up trying to sort it myself and gave it to a specialist PC repair guy.
He's gave me it back having completely wiped what was previously on the PC so now just a fresh install of Windows 7 with the required drivers installed. However I'm now having problems using my 2nd Monitor and he's unsure on how to solve it.
I have 1 PC monitor, an LG W2234 which only has a VGA connector, this monitor is working fine.
I also have a JMB HD TV that I was previously using as a 2nd monitor that worked fine via a HDMI connection. Model no is : JT0122002B/01
Now when I try to connect it via the HDMI connection the PC doesn't acknowledge the device at all and I get no response from the TV. However if I connect it via the VGA cable it does work. The HDMI lead worked fine beforehand and hasn't been used since so no reason why it shouldn't still be working.
I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti, it has three connections: 1 x HDMI, 1 X VGA and 1 x DVI.
Someone suggested to me to try this :
"Hi, I recently connected a different monitor to my pc but it only works with VGA, When I connect HDMI cable it acts like there is no cable connected.
Are the VGA and HDMI connectors both on the motherboard? Asking because they are on my system and I have to go into the BIOS to specifically enable the HDMI connector. That is because there is also a DVI connector, which is enabled by default, and I have to disable that to enable the HDMI connector.
If the connectors are on a video card, you should look in Control Panel, the Display section, and see if you have to enable/disable connectors there."
I went to Control Panel, the Display section but see no option to enable/disable.
Sorry if I've missed any other relevant information out, any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
