Hi:

 

As the article mentioned, most AIO PC"s cannot be used as a monitor.

 

However, there are a few very recent model HP AIO PC's that either have a bi-directional HDMI port or separate HDMI in and HDMI out ports.

 

Unfortunately, no one here could answer your question without knowing the full model number or product number of your AIO PC, and then only if the product specs page provides that information.

 

Unfortunately, not all of the AIO product specs pages indicate if a single port is HDMI in or out, or both.

 

If your PC only has one HDMI port and you tried using your AIO's monitor as a display and it didn't work, then that feature is not supported in your PC.
