Hi. This seems unusual. The display uses HDMI to DVI, but the HDMI cable is from AliExpress and appears to function. However, it doesn't turn on when the PC sleeps or when the PC is off, even if it's powered on. Switching to another PC with a DVI-to-DVI cable works perfectly. The issue might be with the cable itself or the graphics driver, not just the hardware. Please let me know.
What model are you looking for? Many modern iGPUs rely on analog scalers, which limits the use of inexpensive passive cables. You'll need an active display adapter to make it work.
I initially thought it wouldn't work. I'm unsure why. However, if the issue is just signal loss, start by verifying you haven't accidentally adjusted any pins between the DVI cable and the port. Cleaning the contacts with alcohol and a toothbrush might also improve the connection. New cables are always a reliable way to confirm the problem.
