Solved: HP Envy 24-n079na - Help changing the HDMI input - HP Support Community

goldmanpete · ‎06-13-2022

I inherited a HP Envy 24-n079na machine which I am really happy with. I tried putting my Xbox one in the HDMI port and I pressed the source button on the back. Played a few games and wanted to go back to the PC. pressed the source button again but couldn't figure out how to navigate my way through the small menu with input, brightness, sound etc. pulled the hdmi lead out (which I shouldn't do while the machine is on, I know) but the PC came back. My question is, how do I navigate my way through the menu as I don't seem to have any buttons to do so.

Thanks

Pete

hi

nothing found in the documents given here:

https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-envy-24-n000-all-in-one-desktop-pc-series-touch/8499715/mode...

but since it seems to be a touch screen, have you tried from the screen directly?
there doesn't seem to be any other buttons, so either like that, where with the keyboard / mouse keys?
Or press the hdmi button several times?

Thank you - it turns out it was the curser keys on the keyboard

I didn't think they would work as I assumed the keyboard was for PC only and not for external use.

Ok, but not obvious, I'm surprised that it's not specified in the manual

😉
