So I know this is a very old desktop, it has hdmi in ports and im just wondering how to select that option in the menu that popped up. It only has one button to cycle through, and i dont know how to select. If the exact model isnt available, how do people select different options in that menu with other all in one's while only being equipped with one button.

I tried holding down it, didn't work if im sure.

    To select different input options on the Acer Aspire Z3-710, particularly for the HDMI input, follow these steps:

    Using the On-Screen Display (OSD) Menu

    1. Power On: Ensure your Aspire Z3-710 is powered on and connected to the device you want to use via HDMI.
    2. Access the Menu: Press the single button available on your device. This button cycles through the available input options.
    3. Cycle Through Options: Continue pressing the button until you reach the HDMI input option. The menu typically displays different sources such as HDMI, VGA, etc.
    4. Select Input: If there is no direct selection method after cycling, the HDMI input should automatically activate once selected. If it doesn't, ensure that the connected device is powered on and sending a signal.

    Additional Notes

    • One Button Functionality: Many all-in-one PCs like the Aspire Z3-710 may only have one button for input selection, which generally cycles through available inputs without a separate confirmation step.
    • Common Issues: If you encounter problems with detection or switching inputs, check your HDMI cable and connections, as issues can arise from faulty cables or loose connections.

    By following these steps, you should be able to successfully select and use different input options on your Aspire Z3-710.
