HP 2311xi Monitor not working with HDMI? - Windows 8

I have my RCA 6ft HDMI cable plugged into the back of my computer, and running to the back of my monitor. I can see my background, and the bottom tab showing files, internet, etc. But nothing else. No time, sound, or date in the bottom right corner, and all my programs are missing. I have to switch back to DVI for everything to work. I am confused how I get connection with HDMI, but my programs are missing? - Please Help

I understand things aren't quite working as expected with HDMI and the 2311xi monitor.
Is the monitor being connected to a notebook or a desktop PC?
What model is the PC?
If it is an HP PC, what is the product number?
As far as sound goes, have you verified in the sound manager that the HDMI port is selected as the sound output?  Sound may still be defaulted to the analog sound output similar to when DVI is used.  
Go to Start, search for Sound and open the result under Control Panel.
Verify that HDMI is selected.
if HDMI, or the monitor is not listed, then let me know what options are available.  You may need to right-click and select show hidden/disabled devices.

  • External Monitor Not Working With Macbook Pro

    My computer was working fine with an external monitor, then my computer froze, and I had to hold down the power button. When I turned it back on, my computer would not work with an external monitor. I've tried different cables, so it's not the cable. The monitor is being detected by the computer, but nothing is showen on the external monitor. When connecting the monitor to the computer, the computer's screen goes blue, then turns back to normal. I
    I cannot reset the SMC by removing the battery, I do not have the confidence to remove my battery, and do not have the time to send the computer to someone else to do it.
    I also tried updating my OS from 10.7.4 (Might've been 10.7.3) to 10.7.5.
    My computer is a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010), running OS X 10.7.5 Lion.
    I need to get this problem fixed ASAP, any help is appreciated.
    Kind Regards,

    I forgot to mention, I'm connecting the monitor via MiniDisplay -> HDMI. I've also tried USB -> HDMI and USB -> DVI -> HDMI but none of them seem to work.

  • Why does Server Monitor not work with non-Xserves?

    Does anyone know why Server Monitor does not work with non-Xserve computers? We acquired a Power Mac for a server, based on there being no apparent difference except for the obvious. Turns out there are some differences after all.
    Do Power Macs lack some hardware components or is this just a software thing?

    God question, unfortunitly I dont have the answer but I would also like to know why the software only works for X-Serve....Is there any 3rd Party Software that is similar to "Server Monitor"?
    Thanks

  • Windows key + left and right arrows not working with RemoteApp windows

    My office is deploying RemoteApps to replace certain locally installed applications.  I, and many of my coworkers, have 2-3 monitors and the Windows
    + left and right "snap" function has been an extremely convenient way to juggle multiple windows across multiple monitors.  Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work with RemoteApp windows.  Does anyone know a way to get this working?

    Hi,
    Based on my test,  I agree with Keith Langmead, it seems Windows key + left or right key cannot work with remoteapp.

  • Macbook Pro Retina not working with HDMI

    I have a Mac Book Pro Retina that will not work using the HDMI port. I have tried with two Monitors and difference cable and the issue happens on both. I connected one via a Display Port to VGA and it works fine.
    I'd like to use the HDMI port. I am running Mountain Lion 10.8.4 (Latest Version).
    I have tried deleting the pref panes as outlined in ofther links. Aslo reset pram without sucess.
    Is anyone using a Macbook Pro Retina with builtin HDMI port sucessfully with 10.8.4?
    If you are using HDMI with Display port let me know if I should get an adpater to test.

    Hi walkerheather,
    It sounds like you've already done most of the pertinent steps here:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
    I would recommend going through once and trying anything you may have missed in the section "No video or no signal, image distortion, 'snow,' or flickering" and then follow these steps from the very bottom:
    If you tried all of these steps for your display and the video issues persist, contact Apple technical support or take your Apple computer to the nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for diagnosis. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).
    Note: Diagnostic fees may apply for issues not covered under warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP).
    Take care,

  • External DVI monitor not working with new iMac 27"

    I recently purchases a 27" iMac and i'm trying to get it working with a 3rd party DVI external monitor. I got the Apple mini display port (thunderbolt) to DVI adapter and connected everything via a new DVI-D cable. The iMac detects there is a monitor and even shows the display as it should.. however, the monitor has a large amount of static/snow/noise (red coloured), so much so that the monitor is unusable. There is also a considerable amount of flickering.
    The monitor works fine when connected to a Mac Mini with the Mini DVI - DVI adapter, (old set up) so I know the monitor's connection is not faulty.
    Also, the monitor connects fine to the iMac when using a mini display - VGA adapter. The problem really seems to be with the combonation of DVI cable and adapter.
    Has anyone had any experiences with DVI monitors connected to new iMacs via the thunderbolt port?
    (System: iMac 27" 2011, 3.4GHz i7, 16GB RAM, Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2GB. All system updates installed, running OSX 10.7.2)

    I think that your assessment is right, the ATI must be on for DVI to work (so far I've only tested with an older T61p and the Quadro graphics are always running).  Can't you set the machine so that when docked the ATI is used, but on battery the internal video is used? That would be what I would try.

  • Monitor not working with new mini

    I just bought a non-intel mini. I have a Princeton 17" crt monitor that is only a few years old. I used the included adapter, but my monitor is not recognizing the mini. Any ideas?

    You might consider carefully reflashing the bios.  Did you follow all of the correct flashing steps the last time about clearing cmos and rebooting into optimized defaults, etc.?  See:  https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=84865.msg606175#msg606175
    Also- consider flashing back to 1.8 as there is little if anything in 1.9 for your processor, and it worked in 1.8 didn't it?
    I used MSI Live Update 3 and Live BIOS to update my bios. After the update I chose "Yes" to reboot. Then I chose "optimized defaults"
    in the bios. After saving settings and rebooting I entered the bios again immediatly and changed the settings.
    Could something have gone wrong when flashing the bios?
    And yes.. Nvidia Monitor worked with 1.8, but I don't understand why it doesn't work now? And the reboots.. I had those with 1.8 too,
    but they seem to occur less frequently now. I don't know if that is related to the bios however.

  • Adobe Active X will not work with my Windows 7.  Suggestions?

    My Adobe Reader 9.xxx was replaced with Active X, which will not work for me.  I keep getting a box message that says perhaps the Adobe.com site is too busy at the tine.  I would rather have my Adobe reader 9.xxxxx back as it worked very well for me.  I have it on my other computer and it work fine.  I am using Windows 7.   Any suggestions?

    From what I understand from this message, it would seem that your Reader passed from "not working" to "now working", whatever you may mean by these two expressions. I am glad.
    May I suggest that next time you have a question, please try to state it clearly and also give enough and accurate details about your problem?
    It would also be useful if you coud mark this question as Answered.

  • WAD 3.x not working with OS Windows 7

    Dear Experts,
    We are using BI 7.0 with ABAP Services. Hence using BEx WAD 3.x version for Templates instead of WAD 7.x.
    On my PC, OS is Windows 7. While opening WAD 3.x it is giving message that "This application requires Internet Explorer 5 or higher. Inform your system administrator."    Earlier it was Windows XP SP2 and WAD 3.x was working fine.
    Also I have IE 8.0 on my PC. Please suggest the solution on the same.

  • Chieftec blackbox external HDD, not working with GX740 Windows 7.

    Hi
    I have a Seagate Momentus® 7200.4 750GB
                            SATA 3Gb/s, 16MB, 7200RPM, 2,5"
    using it with Chieftec CEB-25S-U3 HDD Chassi
                            2,5", SATA, USB 3.0, Aluminium, Svart/Silver
    and it doesnt seems like the computer is actually accepting it as a harddrive or something.
    It does find it, but i cant format it or use it as a harddrive, its just there.
    Ive had the same problem with another external hdd, it didnt work on my gx740 with windows7, but it did work on an older computer with windows xp.
    Dunno if it has anything to do with it, but the ENE CIR Receiver doesnt seem to be working in the computer. I dont rly know what it is tbh, but its under the HID Human interface Devices section.
    Tryed to update the driver, but it just says it the latest drivers allready.
    Ive allso had problems with the Bluetooth not working, so maybe the ENE CIR thing is the cause of that =P

    'Just there' where? Is the drive actually partitioned and formatted?

  • HP P1006 laserjet not working with a windows 7 Dell e5510 laptop

    Hello
    Any help is appreciated.  When I plug into the usb I get an error message so therefore I can not continue with the installation of the drivers.  aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!  This is frustrating.
    thanks for any advice and suggestions

    Hi Donaldparis,
    After researching from the HP website, I realize that they do not release the HP LaserJet 3050 All-in-One Printer driver for Windows 7. It means that you will install the Windows 7 built-in basic driver and use the basic features. For more information about how to install the basic driver, you may refer to the following link:
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&taskId=120&prodSeriesId=3463669&prodTypeId=18972&objectID=c01856597#category4
    Note: Since the web site is not hosted by Microsoft, the link may change without notice. Microsoft does not guarantee the accuracy of this information.
    If it does not work, you may also try to install the printer driver for Windows Vista under compatibility mode.
    Install driver under compatibility mode & Administrator level
    ==================================
    1.Right click on the exe file for driver and click Properties.
    2.Click on the Compatibility tab.
    3.Select “Run this program in compatibility mode for.”
    4.Choose Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) from the drop down list.
    5.Select “Run this program as an administrator” option under the Privilege Level topic.
    6.Click Apply, click OK.
    7. Please double click on the exe file again.
    Good luck!

  • Cortana not working with new Windows 10 on Yofga 2 13

    I recently updated to the new Windows 10 but am unable to get Cortana to work, even though all my setting are set to English (UK) (required if Cortana is to work). A search online has shown that the only other people I have found with the same issue also own a Yoga 2 13. Just wondering if anyone else with a Yoga 2 13 has had the same problem and if there is any way of overcoming this?

    I have the same problem on my Z510. I have installed the very latest audio drivers but still not working. Like you, I have made sure that my region and language settings are all UK and have installed the UK English pack. I am beginning to think this is a Lenovo problem as, otherwise the WEb would be full of this.

  • Microsoft Arc Mouse not working with my Windows Xp home computer

    I bought the MS Arc Mouse yesterday and plugged the USB into my home computer and nothing happened. I didn't get a popup saying "new hardware recognized" or anything and the mouse did not work. I tried the mouse in my mom's laptop and it worked instantly... does this mouse work for home computers? Why isn't it responding?

    Unplug mouse.
    Download driver: http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/download/downloa​d.aspx?category=MK (You need to select operating system, etc).
    Install driver, and replug in mouse.
    If it does not work at that point, establish that you are plugging it into back USB ports rather then front (as sometimes front USB ports are not powered). Also, try rebooting and changing ports.
