[SOLVED] 2nd monitor won’t display my pc

[Imposted]

I have all in one Lenovo Horizon 2 From 2014, and I’m trying to connect it to a acer gaming monitor, Acer XF250Q Cbmiiprx 24.5" Full... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07G3GRFSZ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share but for some reason it wouldn’t display, (I was using hdmi) my all in one has a HDMI output.

The HDMI port on that computer is an input, not an output. It's not there for an external display, it's there to connect such devices as a DVD/Blueray player etc.

And before you ask, no, it cannot be turned into an output.

How about if I use a display port? Will that work

That computer does NOT provide a video output of any kind for use on a second monitor.
