Hello to all! I am having an issue where I can't get any video from my desktop computer to a new LG OLED tv...
The desktop computer is configured as follows:
Gigabyte P55A-UD4P Motherboard (no on-board graphics)
Intel Core i7 CPU [email protected] w/ 8GB RAM
NVidea GeForce GTX 260 896MB RAM w/ latest NVidea driver 342.01 (2-DVI outputs)
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit w/ all updates
The desktop was previously connected to a Samsung 32" 720p (1366x768) LN32D403 via DVI-to-HDMI cable and worked just fine. We recently purchased a new LG 55" 4K OLED55BXPUA and I can't for the life of me get it to take input from the desktop. All I get is the "No Signal" error on the tv. On the LG I have gone to the Home Dashboard and configured that input as "PC". I have connected a small HP V20 monitor to the the other graphics output so I can see what's going on with the desktop. The only way I can get any video on the tv is if I go into Windows display settings and select "Duplicate these displays" or "Extend these displays". But if I just select the tv I get the "No Signal" message. This happens using either the Windows display settings or the NVidea Control Panel.
If I boot the desktop with just the tv connected, I sometimes see the following: BIOS splash screen-->black "Loading operating system" screen''-->blue Windows screen with spinning dot circle-->then finally the "No Signal" error. But other times I just get "No Signal" during the entire boot sequence.
Some other info:
I have an little Atom powered Minis Forum mini-pc that I use with another tv. That works fine with the new LG. Also I can connect any laptop in the house to the new tv and there's no issue. It's only the desktop that won't connect.
I'm pretty frustrated at this point so advice would be kindly appreciated...8-]
