Looks like all the earlier answers have the majority of the possibilities covered.The on board sound output went out on mine the first month I was using it for live streaming.After much troubleshooting by myself and Lenovo techs, they came to my place and changed out the motherboard. They were very helpful and prompt. If all else fails contact their tech. support.

Did you connect the monitor to the outlet with the rubber cover? If so it wont work. Near the bottom you will find two outlets, one is for a VGA monitor and the other is an HDMI connector. Either of these should work. I did have problems with my K430, even sent it back to the company for repair within four months of ownership. Since I got it back I have added a few things to it, so I now have three monitors hooked up and added another 4 Gig RAM board plus another 1.5 TB hard drive. It works great now with all of the extra toys. Good luck!!!

Same here. I don't have the right graphics card in my laptop, so the monitor didn't work well for me. Poor resolution. Since it would cost $160 shipping to return it, I am going to get a new graphics card. Vendor tech support has been helpful. Check the specs first!

I had this issue as well and I had to invest in several items to get it to work. You have to have a 3D capable monitor. The screen with this laptop isn't capable. Next you need the Nvidia glasses and IR adapter. Then you need a DisplayPort to DVI-D and a dual channel DVI cable.

Check the connectors on your monitor, you might need to find one with female VGA connector on the other side.

Be sure the pins on the DVI side are what you need. There are several versions and you have to have a 100% match to get it to work. Google DVI types.

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

It sounds as if either your card is bad or your monitor is bad, try using a different monitor connector. If this does not work, reinstall your old card, does the monitor receive a signal? If so it seems as though thr card is bad, begin return procedures

If your machine has a dvi port you can split it with a dvi to two vga connector. If not you will have to get a different video card. You could also call tech support from where you got it they will help you.

I did not get a VGA cable included with the monitor even though the user guide on the included cd says it should be a part of the package contents. Now I cant connect this monitor to my other laptop.

You could always buy the DVI to HDMI connector I did and works great! only about 6 dollars if you really want the monitor :)

The VGA/SVGA does not carry a sound signal if you were to get a video signal you would still need a audio cable. Also I think their is a digital to analog issue there. Hope the info helped Happy NY

I have the same problem, same tv, same dvi to hdmi adapter, etc...Except I've got an ATI Radeon 8500. I wonder if it's an issue with the tv input and not the video card? Did you ever find a resolution?

i just received my converter, plugged it into my computer monitor (with HDMI) and the picture/ sound cuts in and out. The Monitor says "no input detected". i wait a few seconds and it comes back. I wonder if mine is defective?

I connected mine with dual-link DVI cable and it works fine. To get the high resolution it does need to be dual-link. You can tell if it by looking to see if it has pins in all 24 locations. Regular DVI will not support the high resolution. You can also use HDMI. It depends on the monitor and the graphics card what it supports. Hope this helps.

Just wanted to ease some concern regarding the monitor itself. (I bought this monitor so amazon showed me your question) It's input lag is rated at 09ms on Displaylag.com which is an excellent rating. The main reason why i bought this monitor. From my understanding the use of DVI or HDMI should have no real bearing on lag input. I would possibly look into the graphics settings of the game itself or make sure the drivers were installed ok.

Yes, I have, that's why I bought it. A few things. There aren't any DVI ports so you'll have to connect either RGB or HDMI. My video card only has DVI ports so I had to get a DVI-HDMI connector. Also, I have played with the adjustments a lot. My nvidia settings report the native resolution being 1920x1080, but it's actually 1366x768. Anything higher or lower and the text looks really crappy, blurry and whatnot. This is when you connect it via HDMI. To tell you the truth, it's not too bad, I have only had it a couple of weeks as well and I am still adjusting it. Haier's website is no help though. Yes, I have, that's why I bought it.

Have you swapped the wires on the other monitor and the other one works? Then its the monitor itself. If the one that was working doesn't work, then you have a bad connection.
