Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: I am unable to make the USB to HDMI Adapter the primary display!
A: Some video cards ship their product with a utility that prevents other video cards from being
set as the primary card. Check the bottom right hand corner taskbar for this utility and disable it
before switching the USB to HDMI Adapter to the primary display.
Q: Why won't my DVD player work when I move it over to the extended display?
A: Some DVD playback software packages do not support playing on a second display adapter
of any kind.
Q: How come my video will not play on Media Player if I move it over to the extended desktop?
A: Check that you have moved the Media Player window completely over to the second screen.

Troubleshooting Tips

The following troubleshooting tips may help if you are experiencing any issues.
•
Check to make sure that all connectors are plugged in correctly.
•
Make sure that the USB port you are using is USB 2.0 and directly on the motherboard.

Eventually disconnect the adapter, restart your computer, repeat the driver installation
and restart your computer once again before you connect the adapter.
•
Check to see that the monitor is connected correctly and the power is ON.
•
Try connecting the adapter directly to the computer instead of through a hub. Allthough it
