switching screen from PC mode to Game Mode (HP omni 27)

Fangio · ‎12-04-2013

I have installed a playstation 3. It did already work once. I switched the screen to Game mode with the button at the side. But now the top bottom does not react. Why ? How can I fix it ?

Hello Fangio

I am sorry I am going to have to ask you to elaborate a bit on what you are seeing and doing. What top button? On the PS3 controller or the OMNI? If you could provide more details I will endeavor to help get this working correctly for you.

Thank you for bringing this to the HP Forums. Have a great day!

It is the button on the right side of the screen of the Omni. There are 4 buttons and the top button should be used to switch from pc to game mode. But most of the time it does not react.

Or should I push that button when starting up the pc ? When I start up the PC, at a certain time you see a small window on the screen which says "pc mode".

It did work again last evening but I really do not know why it does work and why it doesn't work.

Hello again Fangio

I would like you to review the HP Support document titled Using an HDMI Game Console or HDMI Video Player with your Omni27 PC. This document covers a variety of issues and provides instructions on how to interact with the HP Omni and a game console. One of the issues titled Returning to PC mode from gaming mode that I believe applies to your issue.

I hope this resolves the issue with your switching modes on your HP Omni. Thank you for posting your issue on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

No it doesn't. I believe I know that page by heart already. The button doesn't work if I push it.

Hello again Fangio

I was afraid that you would say that from your previous posts. At this point the issue you are describing appears to be a physical issue and I think it would be best if you contacted HP technical support for repair options.
