    Fault may be with your HDMI cable. Do try a known good and perhaps even a better grade cable. The video card driver kicks in likely near the login screen and that may be the root cause. Try to boot your Windows in SAFE mode and test if the external HDMI display continues to function right upto the desktop. In the SAFE mode of Windows, the device drivers for the video card will not be loaded. Post your update.

    Respectively, it is vital that you have the proper vendor supplied (Acer) device drivers for your hardware including the video card. Often the computer manufacturer will tweak their hardware to their own desired specifications with the device driver will also be customized.

        Problem

        This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

        Asus G15 5980HX - 6800M - No Display on Laptop - HDMI/Display Port external monitor works fine. Fried Component.
        by amuse619
        Hello!
        Looks like I fried something when my EDP cable got squeezed on the hinge. I replaced the cable but still no display. Laptop works fine with external monitor connected through HDMI and Display Port-USB C port. I took it apart and I see a burnt component. Can anyone help me identify what this component is? I tried to use schematics for another G15 but it does not match on the amount of pins and size. I attached pictures. The component has a label on it - (21A29)

        Laptop is a Asus G15 Advantage Edition 2021 Laptop Ryzen 9 5980HX - 6800M...

        Lenovo Legion 5 15IMH05H No Display
        by Rolin
        I have a Lenovo Legion 5 15IMH05H 81y6003yUS that someone asked me to help them with a failing SSD. I installed a new SSD, fresh Win11 installation, updates, etc. Very standard stuff and everything was completed. He said he'll pick it up in a few days so I shut it down and set it aside.

        A few days later came and now it won't POST an image, keyboard lights up, fans spin then shuts itself off after about 40 seconds. I've already tried the typical draining capacitance and removed CMOS battery,etc. No display on an external HDMI monitor as well.. No idea what happened. Suspected a BIOS...
