HDMI driver problem
Hi,
Hoping someone out there can help me, as not having much luck trying to get hold of Dell online support. Basically, when I try connecting monitor using HDMI lead it will not work. Lead is ok, as have connected my camcorder with it and not experienced any trouble. Therefore guessing it's something to do with driver?
I'm not much of a techno-head, so please keep any advice in simple terms!
Cheers,
Kiwi

Here is a good article on connecting monitors and TVs to systems
support.dell.com/.../document
1. Set the Input
On most Dell monitors there is a Quick Access or Input button This button allows you to change your monitor to the selected Inputs such as: VGA, Digital/DVI, Display port and various other video input sources that your monitor may have.
Press the Quick Access or Input button to change to the correct video input source.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Install/Update Video Driver
Install or Update your Video card driver, this driver will help your monitor perform at its visual best.
Visit the Dell Drivers and Downloads website and input your Service Tag to get updates specific to your computer.
If you need assistance in Downloading and Installing Drivers or BIOS. Click here for Installation Instructions
Click Here to Launch the Dell Drivers and Downloads Website

3. Configure Video Settings
Configure your Resolution, Color depth, and Font Size, to exactly what visual suits you!
By changing your video settings you can change the look of your screen including Icon Size, Font Size and Color depth.
Please let me know if you have tried this and if it was of any help.
