Recently I upgraded my vista to Windows 7 and tried connecting it to my HD TV through the HDMI but the screen on my laptop goes blank (black) and no reception on the TV as well. Have an ATI Radeon 4500 Series adapter and HDMI used to work perfectly in Vista.
View 3 RepliesI've tried upgrading my Vista PC twice. The installation looks like it's going along fine and after about an hour it seems like it finishes the "installing devices" part and when it restarts and comes back up it says that the installation failed and the previous OS will be restored. Anybody else having this problem?
AMD Phenom 8650
4GBs GSkill PC 8500 RAM
ASUS M3N78 Pro MB
XFX 8800GT video card
Vista Business with SP2 build 6002
I even disconnected the printer because it said the drivers wouldn't work.
Recently upgraded my Vista Toshiba Laptop to Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit via the Microsoft website, and now my wireless internet is not working.
I am connecting wirelessly through a router. I ran the windows troubleshooter, which says it fixed the problem, but I still cannot connect either through IE or Firefox. I confirmed that my IP address is valid via the CMD box... however, when I test connect by using ping <default gateway> I get the error "syntax command is invalid".
All other laptops in my house are working fine, and when I took mine to a local coffee shop I connected with no issues.
i'v been installing all the drivers but the multimedia keys not function at all so i can't use my webcam and etc fitures on my laptop .

I tested the cable with the blue ray player and it works fine. I called Dell (still under warranty) an they were useless.I've checked the settings on the PC and I have it set to "extended" so I can see the monitor on both....no luck. Is it a setting on the TV that I am missing?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed Win 7 RC on a new build and purchased Vista Home Premium 64bit OEM with upgrade to Win 7 Home premium. The Win 7 upgrade disc has arrived. I understand that Vista must be installed and activated for the upgrade to work. Attempts to install Vista with Win 7 RC running or booting from the Vista disc lead to error code 0x80070103, insufficient free space. My HDD has > 450 Gb free space in 2 partitions. Do I need to reformat the HDD in order to install Vista over Win 7?

I ordered the 50$ Windows 7 upgrade disk. I realize that Windows 7 will need vista or XP already installed for the upgrade version of Windows 7. But if I want to upgrade my Vista 32-bit to Windows 7 64-bit, Will I be able to do it with this upgrade disk? after all I will need a fresh install (because 32 to 64) and this is the upgrade version...

I even set the Monitor's settings to HDMI. But nothing happened. It says check display cable. Why is this? How to fix it? Have I done something wrong?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am having issues with a brand new system which has an Intel mainbord. I am trying to connect the system to a Denon AVR1912 unit. Windows tells me that the Denon amp is attached to the HDMI socket (the Denon AVR1912 name is displayed on the icon) but then contradicts itself by saying that it is unplugged. I did discover at one stage that the HDMI icon in the "Sounds" section of Control Panel disappeared. I then had to reload the driver and thought that might fix the problem at the same time, but no such luck. I have checked to make sure that the HDMI socket is enabled in BIOS and that was OK.

The monitor was working fine when connected to my laptop, although with some flickering.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have Acer Iconia W500. It is wokring great in all situation except one. It has one HDMI output. I can connect it to my 24" LCD tv with HDMI cable and works perfect (I can switch between single desktop, clone, extend etc). When I connect to my LG 42" LCD tv using HDMI, the screen goes blank and tv says no signal. When I connect to the TV and start the tablet, I can see starting Windows on both screens. Seems once Windows is loaded, I get no signal on the TV from the tablet. It did work the first time and I was messing with the display setting and I think I accidently turned off backlight on the tablet.I use logmein.com to remote into my other machines. I tried using logmein to connect to this, it works when the tablet is not connected to this TV, but once it it connected to the tv, I only see a blank screen. I also tried UltraVCN, I get same thing, blank screen.I need to know if there is any way I can either delete the LG tv profile or something where when I connect the HDMI cable, it will revert back to default setting and the video will show on both tablet and tv like it does when I connect the other TV.Sorry about long thread, but wanted to make sure I enter all the details of my problem.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI bought new computer about 6 month ago. Hdmi worked fine with my tv and I don't know whats wrong now. I know its not the cable because I bought another one and the tv is certainly not because it has 2 hdmi. The computer as I said is almost new so a would be very happy if I wouldn't have to give it repairing.
View 3 Replies View RelatedUp until the other day, I've been using my MSI Wind u230 netbook / Radeon HD 3200 to output to my monitor (Acer S243HL - only has 1x DVI and 2x HDMI inputs) and then occasionally swap to a Westinghouse 32" TV.The other day: I was using my monitor then swapped to the tv, and then returned to my room to connect to the monitor and it just won't work. (To note, I've been using Win key + P to set projector only and to disconnect projector before unplugging the HDMI cable.)The netbook screen will turn itself off (as if it detects the HDMI-out) but the screen or TV will just show "No signal."I tried a shorter HDMI cable, tried the other input on the monitor, still nothing. Strangely enough, checking the displays in Catalyst or the Screen Resolution properties, it can detect both the TV and the monitor. There's just no signal coming out.Even stranger: trying to connect another laptop to the monitor (which used to work) displays "No signal" too.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI built a barebone kit and installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, I installed all the drivers correctly but for some reason Windows keeps detecting the front audio jack as if someone is repeatedly pushing in and out headphones(no pun intended). Audio doesn't work at all through front and back audio jacks, only HDMI. I only get static from the audio jacks.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo Im planning on preordering a copy of 7 tomorrow.
My laptop is running 7127 x64.
Im planning on going back to my original vista disk so I can purchase an "upgrade".
My question is can a buy a x64 upgrade? Or would I have to buy x86?
I'm currently running an OEM version of Windows Vista Home Premium, and I've placed my pre-order for Windows 7 Home Premium. Will I be able to do a clean install of 7 from my OEM version of Windows? I've heard that it somehow is dedicated to the motherboard, which could cause some issues...I don't know.
Will this work fine?
I was to find that I couldn't do an in place upgrade from Vista Home Premium (64-bit) to 7 Professional (64-bit) after I'd already bought Professional. It seems that I can do an in place upgrade to either 7 HP or 7 Ultimate, but they skipped over Pro.
Is there some workaround for this, or failing that some way to reliably back up my applications and data?
I have already either upgraded the incompatible software, or uninstalled it, so I only have compatible software left on my Vista HP64 system.
I currently use both the IE8 x32 and x64 browsers on Vista.
I purchased the Windows 7 from Microsoft which I am supposed to receive by 22 Oct.
After I upgrade to Windows 7 will both the x32 & x64 browsers be included in the
update. I am in the USA.
hello, I currently have a inspiron 531s motherboard with a OEM vista 32bit, I also have a license for vista 64 bit but its an upgrade version, is there any possible way that I can get a w7 upgrade license, I cant afford to buy the full version, I can only afford to get the upgrade version, I was wondering how much it is, a friend of mine purchased a upgrade license from his vista 64 bit to w7 for 50$ I was wondering if there is any way I can possibly do that, I prefer going from my vista 32 bit OEM to w7 64 bit that would be a lot easier but if that wont work I will install my 64 bit vista and go to w7 64 bit, I don't know where to buy the w7 upgrade.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've recently purchased a Samsung T23A750 monitor and to my disappointment when I try to watch a movie the built in speakers are not functioning. I have a Sony Vaio Z216GX connected via HDMI to the monitor (HDMI-DVI) port. I can definitely see the video, but no audio is playing from the speakers. The built in speakers are not at fault- I did a self-diagnosis of the monitor and the speakers seem to work fine. I also set the monitor as the default for the audio and even when Win 7 says its functioning properly, the speakers still don't work. Conversely, setting the default to my PC speakers work fine. I'm sure its not the HDMI cable- I used the same one to hook my pc to my tv with everything working fine.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI must confess from the get-go that my knowledge of the finer points of computers in general is limited, but I've heard that 64-bit is the way to go. I bought my system from Dell about 12 months ago. Since I didn't build it, I can't tell you what mother board I've got (Dell refuses to easily divulge that bit of info and it's kind of a huge problem), but I do know:
Intel Q6600 @ 2.4 GhZ
4 GB DDR2 800
Radeon HD 3870 512 MB
W/ Vista Ultimate 32-bit
can I buy an upgrade kit to go from Vista 32 to Windows 7 64 or will I need to straight buy Windows 7 64 bit and install it? Will I need to update the BIOS? Is casual gaming, photo and video editing and HD video viewing even worth 64-bit? Again, since I don't know what mobo I have, all this may be for nothing because the board may not do 64-bit at all...
is it worth it to upgrade from Vista to Windows 7? A lot of my friends say its the bomb but they do talk a lot lol so would like to hear from the pro's.
