System Type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor

Display Adapters:
* Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600
* NVIDIA GeForce GT 745M


Using HDMI cables, I can not display the karaoke lyrics on a TV and a separate monitor at the same time. I can however run them separately, thru HDMI.

As soon as I connect them both to a "HDMI splitter cable", neither work. Yet, when I use my old faithful laptop that I've been using for years, it works perfectly, and it is no where as powerful as my newer laptop.

Help :(

Thanking you in advance
I haven't had much luck with video splitter cables and my guess would be that is where your problem lies. I use a HDMI powered splitter and have run cables as far as 50 feet without any problems.
