If a video card connected to your Asus AMD computer motherboard has an HDMI output, this means that you can connect external video devices to your computer using an HDMI cable. This is mainly designed for use with monitors and television sets, allowing you to use these external devices as a secondary computer monitor. An HDMI cable transfers video in true, uncompressed high definition from one device to the next.
Instructions
1. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI input on the back of your Asus computer. This input is connected to your computer's display adapter, which itself is connected to your AMD motherboard.
2. Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI input on your monitor, television set or other external video device.
3. Turn on both devices. Windows will load and the HDMI cable will pass video information along to your external device, allowing you to see your computer's desktop.
4. Right-click your computer's desktop and click "Screen Resolution." This will bring up the native Windows utility used to configure video devices, including the video device connected via HDMI to your Asus computer. Click the icon for this video device at the top of the "Screen Resolution" window.
5. Click the "Resolution" box. Slide the vertical bar until the word "Recommended" appears on screen. Click "Apply." This will adjust the resolution of the external video device to its recommended resolution, giving you the best possible image quality over the HDMI cable. The external device connected to your Asus computer and your AMD motherboard is now properly hooked up and configured.
