Anyone project their screen often? I do coz on top of my bed got a TV then always i hook up my miix to the tv visa USB-C to HDMI cable to watch movie at night. All good for the past 6 months or so then now suddenly it start to act up.
Watch half way loose signal, half way no signal, etc. 2 weeks ago just totally dead. I noticed when I plug in the USBC-HDMI adapter that time, the miix screen not blinking, like not detecting at all. So I bought myself a new adapter. With new adapter, it works but half half also, like watch half way then will loose signal few seconds like that. Then I thought HDMI cable pulak no good. Buy new. Also same. TV I tried to change different HDMI port also same.
I'm worried if it's the USB C port problem itself. How can I check this ah? Also, anyone got any links to update latest graphic card driver or something?
Thanks.
Unfortunately no real way to check, except to wait until it fails completely IINM (considering the built in diagnostics suite only really checks for internal systems related stuff). TBH, I don't really use external displays on the Miix all that often (I have other laptops for that), but when I do, it does work well as long as I plug the HDMI cable into the adapter BEFORE I plug the adapter itself into the Type-C port.
If I plug it in the other way around (adapter first before HDMI), things often don't work as intended for some unknown reason.
As for drivers, I use the drivers provided by Lenovo + whatever Windows Update downloads and that has been working OK so far, considering the I have the Miix set up more for stability rather than all out performance.
Otherwise, best place to search for drivers is probably from Intel themselves, though it might be a tad hard to find. The Miix runs an Intel HD 520 (Skylake) / 620 (Kaby Lake) though if you need something to search with.
