HDMI not responding to TV- Any fixes?

Don't really know what you are asking. Do you mean the HDMI cable? is that coming out of your cable or satellite box or a PC/MAC/Laptop, BlueRay, DVD?

I am guessing because you mentioned drivers you are talking about a computer connected to your TV.

Have you checked the source channel on the TV? can you connect an old monitor or anything to your computer with a VGA cable to make sure your graphics card is not malfunctioning?

What does the TV say? No Signal or is it just a snowy noise screen?

Check using another HDMI cable

I have had to replace 1 or 2 myself and that is all it was

So the HDMI cable is not working. I plug it in to my laptop and then to my television and telling my laptop to split screen or project to screen and it does not work anymore. I used to be able to see it and now NOTHING.

I assume it is my laptop because I took the TV and plugged it in to another computer and it came on- both with the VGA and with the HDMI port.

I can't find a solution because with the dog dying and no work on the horizon, movies and afternoon baseball is all I have. That and Jordan Peterson, Joe Rogan, Bill Burr and VladTV youtube channels.

Oh yeah... Joey Diaz is pretty cool too.

I’ve had hdmi ports on TV go bad. I assume if you had more than one you would have tried it already but I have 4 ports only two work really screwed me up. Another dumb one but are you going into settings and matching up the right port to the right input

Is your TV “smart”? If so just get chromecast or something, I think its even free to download as an app. If you have an older TV like me then you still need to buy the little receiver that plugs into HDMI so probably outa luck... It all being wireless where you can just mirror your phone or tablet to TV is so much nicer though.

I phone has an AV cord where you can Mirror your phone to your TV it’s really cool. It does use the hdmi port so it sounds like it wouldn’t help you. How is the job search going yK any luck
