    My HDTV won't detect my computer Help!

    Right I have a Technika x22/14b-gb-tcd-uk HDTV that I am trying to connect to my computer as a primary Monitor I already have a Technika x22/14c-gw-tcd-UK which is a slightly different model that works great as a monitor but I want the other HDTV to work too.
    The HDTV is not detecting the computer which is connected via hdmi as it keeps saying no signal on the TV and the HDTV does't show up in device manager on the computer so I am thinking that the HDTV isn't compatible with my computer or something as I have tried it on my old computer and works fine and have also used different hdmi cables and nothing changes.

    Please Help Me :P

    It may be a stupid answer but is HDMI enabled from the On Screen Menu?

      What do you mean on screen menu? on the TV or PC?

        On the TV. Some TV's appear to have a menu showing the various inputs and have a tick box alongside. The only thing I can think of is so as to enable or disable them. Not 100% certain though.

          Well there isn't a enable option so I think it is automatic enabled as it works fine when I plug my sky box into it via hdmi

            OK then. Do you tell your PC to switch to external display. On my laptop it's hold down Fn key and press F5 to link my laptop to my TV via HDMI. It doesn't find it automatically.

                I'm out of ideas, sorry. Maybe someone else on the forum can offer advice.
                As a last resort I've found someone else having problems who may have a solution.
