Hello boolee,

Thank you for posting.

Please, share more information about this behavior. See below.

  1. Provide your computer model.
  2. Provide the cable model and brand.
  3. Check for the driver version you are running. Go to Device Manger> Display adapters> Intel(R) HD Graphics right click on Properties and then go to Driver, you will be able to see the version installed.
  4. When did the issue start?
  5. Have you tried using other HDMI cables?

Please, let me know if you are able to try the other HDMI cable.

In the meantime, let's update your Intel® HD Graphics driver. Find below the steps to remove the current driver, and the driver I would like you to test.

  1. Open the Device Manager.
  2. Expand the Display Adapters section.
  3. Find the Intel Graphics Driver. The driver can also be called the Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator Driver (Intel® GMA Driver).
  4. Right-click the Intel Graphics Driver and select Uninstall.
  5. Select the check box Delete the driver software for this device.
  6. The system must go through a restart to complete the uninstall process.
  7. If no older drivers are stored in the system, the graphics controller in device manager should now be listed as 'Microsoft Basic Display Adapter', 'Standard VGA Graphics Adapter' or similar. If not, repeat steps 1 through 6.
  8. Proceed to install driver https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27360/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-45-?product=88355 Download Intel® Graphics Driver for Windows* [15.45] with these steps https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005629/graphics-drivers.html Manually Install an Intel® Graphics Driver in Windows® 10 and...

One more thing, can you please double check the computer model you provided? I was unable to find information about it.
