Projector to computer?

My computer will not maintain an HDMI hookup with my projector, how can I fix this?

  • I have a BenQ MW512 projector and a Dell Studio 1555. When I plug the HDMI cable into both items, the computer screen becomes projected through the projector perfectly for approx. 5 seconds. After that the projected image disappears and the projected image returns to the projectors default screen and it reads HDMI signal not found. BenQ support says that the computer's screen resolution is not compatible with the projector. I do not understand how the image can be displayed for 5 seconds and then all of a sudden become incompatible. The HDMI cable and projector work fine with my PS3 and Xbox360. Also my computer has been hooked up to several HDTV's via HDMI cable before. So I know that it is possible; but I am unable to figure out the solution. Thank you.

  • Answer:

    Change the Dell's output resolution to 1280 x 800. Why are you second guessing Benq? Their answer is right on the money. What you see for the first 5 seconds doesn't enter into it.
