    Hi there. I am having issues with outputting from the M14 to a HDMI TV.

    I have the HDMI cable connected & the laptop can see the telly.

    No images appear on the telly. There is a flashing message at the bottom of the tv screen saying scene change though.

    Please advise. What am I missing.

    I don't know if this will help but try pressing Windows-key + P and choose an option.

    I'd suggest you restart the laptop, because it happen to me most of the time, when u restart it, the laptop use do the POST thingy, for it to detect/check new device if it is connected.

    So try restart your laptop to see if it fix.
