I was updating my HDMI with

HDMI 2.0 Firmware Update Tool for Intel

well when updating my pc rebooted and my HDMI no longer works , only the second one now works ( the one that says UHD) i tried multiple times to have the first one work and there is no way i can get it to work.

What did you have connected to this port when you tried the update?

Ok, I was wondering if there might be a requirement for a HDMI 2.0-compliant Monitor/TV to be connected (and your monitor is only HDMI 1.4-compliant), but I just ran the update successfully with only a HDMI 1.4-compliant monitor connected to my DN NUC, so that isn't the case.

Hhmmm, let's look at the other possibilities...

  • Did you remember to use Run As Administrator?
  • Did you select the right Driver and Firmware files (i.e. those that were specified in the release notes)?
  • Did you see the firmware update operation say it completed?
  • Did it say that it was successful?
  • Did it say that it was successful resetting the device afterwards?

Perhaps it would be easiest if you could attach the log file that was produced by the tool and we can look at it. If you do not see an Attach shortcut in the lower right-hand corner of the edit window, click on Use Advanced Editor in the top right-hand corner of the edit window.

You can also try the operation again, but this time you may need two HDMI monitors in order to do so (you could connect a TV). In this case, make a copy of the tool's log file before proceeding (so you have copy of contents from failed run). When you run the tool, make sure you verify the existing firmware version before anything else.

Hope this helps - and let us know what happens if you do try it again...

i did run it as administrator i tried to update my second port and it worked good

i did indeed select the right driver as it worked for the second HDMI port

the first one was not successful second tried i attempted it the pc turned off bricked my HDMI port

i can try to plug in a second monitor when i get a chance , i wondered if i could delete a registry file to roll back the update or will this end to an RMA .. kinda weird that this happened.

Hello TwistedEndz,

 

 

Thank you for your response.

 

 

I understand that the issue still persists even after the replacement of the unit.

 

 

I would like to begin by asking, why did you need to update the HDMI firmware? Was the unit giving you problems? Also, did you try with the update using this replacement you received? This information is needed to find where the problem can be.
