HDMI connection from a Sony Vaio VGN-2950 to external display does not work (but VGA does)

external displayhdmi

I have a Sony Vaio VGN-2950 with a HDMI connection and a Samsung 24A350H external monitor with an HDMI input.

If I connect the laptop to the Samsung via a VGA connection, it works fine. However, it won’t work when using HDMI; the screen stays blank.

Any ideas how I can get it to work with HDMI?

As long as you have your display drivers installed properly, you should see the option "Output To ->" when you right click on your desktop and look under display or properties. If HDMI is connected, You should see the option Output To - TV.
