Asus Laptop k52jt and dell u2415

Hi to all,

this is my first post on this forum!

I' ve purachased today a new flammant dell u2415. I love the design and the potential of this monitor!
Actually i haven't a desktop pc but only a laptop auss k52jt with vga and hdmi port.

Today i install the driver of the monitor on my laptop, then i connected the laptop (graphi card -  ati HD6370 M ) to the monitor... but notinhs happens...only the message "no dp cable". 

I thinked :"Why the monitor ask me display port cable if i connected hdmi?"

On graphic card properties the dell appears like the 2 monitor. Iextend the desktop to the monitors (my laptop and dell) but nothing happens...


I've updated the drivers from amd-ti site. I installed the latest catalyst and ... my laptop monitor loose all the brightness! I can view the video only with a torch!

Then i was be able to restore the precedent windows without these drivers.
Then i install the latest driers 8.8.84 of my graphic card from asus site... it was ok!

But nothing changed.
Also with catalyst i can see the dell monitor via hdmi but video don't show up.

I dont' know what i do. Have suggestions?

Do I have to but dp to hdmi adapter? But why hdmi direct cable configuration is wrong?

Thanks

Gabriele

There are two hdmi port the input and the output, you have to check it.

I don't think it is needed to install the drivers of the monitor to your laptop.

The U2415 has two HDMI in ports. Not an HDMI out port. The U2415 Menu OSD (On Screen Display) -Input Source must be used to select either HDMI 1 or HDMI 2.
