Hello, since I bought my Swift SF314-52G, it hasn't been able to connect to a screen using HDMI, whether I use Fn-F5 or not. Not a home, where we own a rather old TV, nor at working situations with modern screens. My laptop seems not to be able to find the screen. Does anyone know a solution for this problem?

    Have you tested with different HDMI cables? With the monito connected to the HDMI on the laptop you should be able to see the second screen in Display Settings and choose which screen or screens to use with the Windows-P key combo.

    A late reaction: yes, I've tried it with several different HDMI cables. In fact, I tried it in several places I had to give a presentation and switch to someone else's computer to give the presentation. It just doesn't work. The Windows-P key combo shows me the four options for a second screen, but what is shows is the same thing as when no second screen is connected. When a second screen is connected, I usually use "duplicate", which doesn't work unfortunately.
