HDMI Input not working with Asus Monitor

[Blackfyre12]

I have just bought a new HDMI Cable for my Asus 23.6 inch monitor. When I plug it in and switch to the HDMI display, all I get is HDMI no signal.

I don't know if its relevant, but there was a similar problem with my DVI input. To "solve" this I simply used the second DVI port on the back of my computer, located nearer the middle, and it worked fine. There is a Mini HDMI port next to this DVI port, so I was sort of wondering if I need an M-HDMI adapter instead. Ideally, however, making the normal HDMI port work would be great.

I have attempted to allow the use of an HDMI cable through my NVIDIA control panel, but it does not seem to work.

My GPU is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti

Please help!

can you try the monitor on another pc for testing purposes to see if the monitor's hdmi port works with a known working hdmi cable?

Would this work with a laptop?

yes if it has a hdmi port on it. also laptops are pc's too.

The cable works fine with my laptop connected to my monitor. Also thank you for the education

as the monitor & hdmi cable works with your laptop then the videocard in your desktop is the problem.

So I would use the NVIDIA control panel?

no as you will need a new videocard as the hdmi is not working at all. the hdmi will work in the boot process without use of software which yours does not which mean you have a hardware problem with that card. my hdmi works ok in the boot process til windows loads & then uses the card's software.

Is this the only possibility? If so is this the only solution?

try the card in another computer for testing purposes to see if it displays using hdmi during the boot process. no software has to be installed for that card in windows. can also try it in other computer without hard drive installed or enabled. I do that all the time.
