HDMI Problems
HDMI Problems
Recently I bought a small (10 in) ASUS Computer in the US just for movies, music and for hooking to my TV.(Windows8) The HDMI port has stopped working. Its not in the programing as I had an expert in the US remotely look at all the programing and software.
Can the HDMI plug be replaced and does anyone know of a place in Sihanoukville that can do this?

Try a new cable first. The cheap HDMI cables don't always last long. Quality HDMI cables are ridiculously expensive.
Here is where some asshat posts that his HDMI cable cost $0.07 and it's lasted 15 years already.

Re: HDMI Problems
I picked up a really cheap cable near the Central Market for about 7 cents. I've been using it for almost 15 years now with no problems.

Re: HDMI Problems
Try a new HDMI cable. If that doesn't work, I'd guess your connection from the HDMI housing to the motherboard is broken. This can be fixed in 10 minutes with a bead of solder.

Re: HDMI Problems
Sailorman, this occasionally works on other equipment - physically pull the power plug on your television from the wall for 10 minutes, disconnect the HDMI cable too. Plug the HDMI back in and restart your TV.

Re: HDMI Problems
Thanks all for the suggestions. Have tried everything stated before posting. I bought a new cable. I have another computer and both cables work on my other computer/TV. The TV works with other computer. I even tried the trick Stroppy said and nothing.

Re: HDMI Problems
It was a long shot but does clear a particular communication problem.

Re: HDMI Problems
Have you got someone who can take the jacket off your PC and check the HDMI port is seated correctly?
