How do I activate the HDMI port on this computer? (I'm trying to connect an external monitor to extend the display. This was plug and play on my old computer (running Windows 7) but the Envy isn't recognizing the external display). HPs website shows...

I'm sorry I can't help - as I don't know. I only have the all-in-one monitor.

Any monitor you use should work fine . It might be connected to the work port on the computer. When I checked a write up on the Asus monitor it might have to be connected to had I port. Or maybe the monitor is defective. Try using monitor on another computer to make sure it's in working order. If you still have trouble try the HP support forum at hp.com

Dear Mediabridge,You are right. I am having trouble getting audio through TV when I connect HDMI to my HP PC with Window7 and 37LG10 TV. I changes audio playback device setting to TV/HDMI default. On testing HDMI audio, it says this device is already in use. Could you please help me to get Audio. Thank you.Regards,BK

No. I am not sure what kind of ports your hp pavilion has (you didn't specify the exact model), but at best this cable can connect your laptop to one of these monitors. If you have and HDMI port on the laptop you would be better off using that to connect to the HDMI on you HP Envy 23. The HP 2011x supports DVI-D and VGA, so if you're laptop has a DVI-I port you can hook up to the 2011x VGA port, but the signal quality may be degraded somewhat. Either way you will need either 2 cables or some sort of multi-port cable (not usually a good option, as the 2 monitors would probably have to sit in very close physical proximity, and have identical ports).

Hi there. I received your question but quite honestly, I ended up purchasing a Sony Vaio from Amazon and not the HP Envy, so I'm afraid I can't answer your question.

I don't know. I had a HP rep come and service my new HP Desktop, and he pulled a HD Card out of the computer, which was apparently configured for Tiger Direct, where I bought computer. He said they sold me the wrong monitor, that was why resolution was so bad. The HD card was expecting HD signal, which didn't happen. Monitor is OK now, not as good as I expected, but as good as my old Samsung.

The HP laptop, does it have a s_video port to output an image or to accept an image from an s_video source? I don't know about your situation, but I was able to hook an ipod to the mini projector and get a good video to play (on the front surface of my refrigerator, no less).

The monitor does not have a USB hub that I can see. I use the ones in my computer.

I had the exact same experience with my HP Envy Sleek book and Windows 8.1. However, I had emailed several times to HP support about the problem and finally received an email from HP with an HP wireless driver update. After downloading and installing the update I again had the option to "add wireless device" and followed the instructions to install the Actiontec and it worked!!! Another note is that it only works on HDTV screens of 40" and larger??? The software update info: Mediatek 802.11 WIFI adapter for Windows 8.1 - File version 4.0.100.1189 - Product version: 5.0.37.0 - 31.9 MB - Created 4/24/14 - Original filename: stub32i.exe - Once the Actiontec wireless device is loaded, it connects automatically. I have done several Power Point presentations and it worked perfectly!!! Good Luck!!!

My Envy has been fine for both video and audio. I run it off of a Surface Pro (ver. 1) and while I sometimes need to kick up the audio output; that is not an issue as it's hooked up to my tuner/amp. I'm not a gamer so I don't even know what you are referring to re "My GPU is nVidia 780". My model Envy has the "Beats" audio and I connect with HDMI with no issues. I played with video settings at first but quickly dropped back to default as it looks the best. Hope this helps.Roger

Thanks so much for your response. I'll go ahead and bust it out of the package and try it out. Trying to connect an extra monitor!! Lee

I believe you can connect Xbox One. I am not into those games but I see something for XBox on the HP Envy Computer. Monitor can be connected with HDMI.

since most HP AIO and TouchSmart computers have no video output of any kind, you need to use a USB-to-video adpater to connect a second display to your computer. Amazon sells these. As a starter Try StarTech USB to VGA External Video Card Multi Monitor Adapter - 1920x1200 - USB to VGA External Graphics Card I haven't tried this, but it's supposed to work.

There is no touchscreen. Also, HP's website is generic and ambiguous about some other features of the Envy models.There is no VGA output for a second monitor (like I was hoping), but there is an HDMI output.Also, I agree with the earlier comments; this model is *very* fast, and the vendor (Eluktronics) was good, too. They shipped my order within 3 hours of submitting it to Amazon. I don't know if they can always do that, buy I was very happily surprised!

It has been a couple months since I have played with Keedox, but (if I remember correctly) I believe you have an option for HDMI output in the setup menu....I just started with that menu and went from there. Just a methodology that I have followed for three decades when it comes to any computer startup
