Hooking Laptop To TV Using HDMI

ecbyrant4 · 10-23-2009, 08:13 PM

I hooked up my hp paviliondv6000 to my sony bravia kdl-32L4000 and Ive got the screen on the tv but everything has a blue-ish tint to it and does not show exactly like the computer. My computer currently has a "NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150" video card. Can someone help me and suggest what may be the problem and how I can get my TV to show a regular picture? Thanks

Hey, you could try the nVidia control panel and there should be colour correction in there. or your TV could have different settings (I know mine does) eg. game, theatre etc. so it may just be your TV settings.

hope that helped...

How do you connect from the VGA output on the PC to the HDMI input on the TV?
Are there multiple adapters? If so, check to ensure that you've got the adapters firmly hooked up. Also be sure that you've got the proper DVI adapters since there's a slew of different one's available.
