Am I doing something wrong? My desktop is showing on my TV, but nothing else shows up. No wireless connection involved, PC > HDMI cable > TV.  I know, I need to clean my TV screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Yidn, shreibt un fershreibt" "The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them.

go to change display settings and make sure it is on "duplicate" rather than "extend displays" . | |||

is your tv input capable of handing the output resolution of your laptop? | |||

What happens when you skip the Fire and connect directly from the laptop to the TV via HDMI? | |||

Thank you! That did the trick, only issue is my monitor is square and my TV is rectangular so it changes the resolution to fit the TV. No problem, since I don't use both at the same time. The sound comes out of the computer but not the TV how would I fix that? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Yidn, shreibt un fershreibt" "The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them.
