HDMI Output not working, but VGA works?

[MiljanIlic]

I have problem with Onboard Graphics. I have used it over HDMI, and all worked OK until PC crashed after I tried to WakeUp him (He didn't Woke Up) and I reseted it over Reset Button. After this PC booted up but without any image on screen, I switched output source to VGA and it worked, but image quality is very bad and I need HDMI.

First of all I do CMOS clear, but it didn't helped me. Second, i checked cable for any damage but it works with output from my laptop. Third thing I done is changing RAM module. I switched it with another, new, module but it didn't helped. Can you help me to slove this big problem?

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-J1900M-D3P,
OS: Windows 7 64Bit,
RAM: 4GB - PSD34G160081.

Have you tried reloading/updating your video drivers?

 

[MiljanIlic]

I checked driver, all is OK. I tried with reinstallation, but nothing. The problem is begins before OS starts booting. The problem is that I can't see anything on screen even I can't see POST Logo, I can't see BIOS. Just nothing on HDMI.

What version of Windows are you using?

 

[MiljanIlic]

Windows 7 x64

 

[COLGeek]

In Control Panel/Device Manager, do you have any devices indicating a problem (like the Display Adapter)?

Have you considered going to support.intel.com and getting the latest Intel provided video drivers?

 

[MiljanIlic]

There is no problem in Device manager, I tried driver from CD provided with motherboard and driver from Gigabyte Official Site. I'll try driver from Intel site.

It is possible that the HDMI port has been damaged and is defective. When connected to a display via HDMI, does the display detect something attached to it via that particular HDMI source?

 

[MiljanIlic]

Yes, display detects source, and trying to search signal but cannot find it...

I have an old monitor that has both VGA and HDMI ports and requires me to shut it down and return it on to switch between VGA or HDMI after its hooked up. Some of these monitors require you to switch it in their menu, perhaps even by switch. VGA is analog, and HDMI is digital, and it may be your monitor needs to be switched back to digital in some way.

If the video adapter and HDMI drivers are properly installed, the cable checks out, then the HDMI port is the likely culprit.

Can you connect to 2 displays (one VGA and one HDMI)?

 

[MiljanIlic]

When VGA is connected and I connect HDMI, display detects that it is conected but No Signal on HDMI, VGA Works. When I remove VGA situation is same on HDMI port. When I reset computer with both, VGA and HDMI, connected there is no image on both displays, but when I remove HDMI, VGA gets Signal. When I remove VGA and leave HDMI connected nothing happends.

 

[COLGeek]

When VGA is connected and you connect HDMI, does Windows detect that something is connected to the HDMI port (and the second display)?

 

[MiljanIlic]

With and without HDMI connected situation is same (I clicked on Detect).

 

[COLGeek]

In your BIOS, do you have a setting to enable/disable the HDMI port?

 

[MiljanIlic]

There is no any, tab, option for Graphic Card. I checked bilion times.

 

[COLGeek]

In your Intel HD Graphics Control Panel, under Display, what Select Display Mode are you using (Single Display, Clone Displays, Extended Desktop, Collage)?

 

[MiljanIlic]

Single Display

 

[COLGeek]

Change to extend desktop, with 2 displays attached, to see if you can force an image to the HDMI connected display. This should confirm whether the port is work at all.

 

[MiljanIlic]

I changed Display Mode to Extended, restarted PC. I didn't see any image on both displays until OS start up, and then there was only image on VGA output.

 

[COLGeek]

It does seem that you have suffered a hardware failure. Sorry.

 

[MiljanIlic]

Okay, thank you very much... I will try to find some cheap GPU, thank you again.
