Hello.
I connected a monitor to my Pavilion 14 cd000 laptop and it's shouted down immediately . Since that I can't turn it on. When I connect it to the charger, the charge light turns on, and somthing when I trying to turn on the power light turns on but nothing works.
I have been using this monitor long time, and today before it's happened, the monitor screen color was red, so I disconnect it and reconnect.
Hope oi can help me. Thanks, Amit.

Hello @Ami3466
Sorry to hear that you are having problems ... I would like to help you.
HDMI is current-conducting, so when connecting the HDMI cable to 2 devices (notebook <-> TV/monitor), at least 1 device should be completely switched off, otherwise a short circuit can occur in the worst case...
(1) Disconnect charger
(2) Press and hold <power> button for 30 seconds
(3) Connect charger
(4) Power on notebook. What happens ?
(5) Please report your results

Thank you for your replay,
it turned a power light, but nothing happening, I left it like that about an hour and the laptop became very hot.
Presumably as you said it sounds like a short cut, what does it mean in terms of repairing?

Hello @Ami3466
It is too expensive to fix it. As a workaround, please use an adapter:
USB to HDMI Adapter for Monitors,hdmi to USB Adapter,1080P Compatible with Windows XP/7/8/10/11
Kind regards
