WIDI on Windows 8 not working
I have a new Inspiron 15R SE.
I am not able to use the WIDI. I keep getting error messages on the adapter and also on my laptop.
I tried to download new drivers but it says my laptop is not a capable platform for WIDI.
Does WIDI work on Windows 8? I have been told I need to download the Windows 7 drivers?
Please help. By the way my adapter is a PS3.

Hi canman172,
If the TV has a HDMI port Refer to your TV manual to change the input or source to the appropriate HDMI port.
Certain TV’s have more than one HDMI ports, ex. HDMI-1, HDMI-2, HDMI-3
If you have connected the PS3 Adapter to HDMI-2 port on the TV, change the Source/Input on the TV to HDMI-2
Please check and reply.
