U2212HM, PC HDMI to DP does not work
Was a solution ever found for this issue? I just purchased two Dell U2212HM monitors and having the same issue here. I connected the HDMI to DisplayPort into my monitors using my Dell Latitude 7390 and its not picking up the signal. It defaults to power save mode the minute it is plugged in.
No Events found!
