Using 15m HDMI cable. Image loads up during boot up, loses picture when login screen should appear. Switching to 2m HDMI cable bring the picture up. What is wrong?

Using :

a Palit 1080ti GPU Sony 1080/4K TV screen (neither 4k or 1080p work, image shows if I use shorter cable)

Worked before with 10m cable too. Is the cable too long for this image?

Is there a setting to give more power to the HDMI port maybe?

UPDATE and another question at the end:

I can't, I'm changing out the Wired Steam Link setup in my lounge to a HDMI/USB repeater setup, failure not an option.

I've managed to get it working at 2160p 60hz

With Sony TVs there is an option to

'Enhance 4K signal - displays high quality HDMI signals on HDMI inputs 2 and 3 on the back of the TV. Select this option if your device supports High Quality HDMI formats such as: 4K 60p 4:2:0 10bit, 4:4:4, 4:2:2.'

Or

Have 'Standard Format'

What's weird is that was in my TV in my room, which is the same TV I'm using now, had this option enabled when using a 10m cable with the same specs. It was also enabled for the Amazon Fire TV (4k version). But with this, having the enchanted option on, it wouldn't give a signal.

Turning it off seems to have made it work and I am getting 2160p with 60hz.

Now I'm wondering what this option even does if the picture looks so good with it off.

Any ideas?

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ

"nvfbc plugin window" preventing Windows 10 shutdown.

So yeah, the title says it all.. When i try to shut down or restart my PC, I get a screen saying a program is preventing shut down. But I don't know what to do to fix it. I found a script on a steam forum about how to disable or enable NVFBC but that doesn't have any effect. Any ideas? Submitted January 19, 2018 at 12:40AM by Wickedld http://ift.tt/2DsOvwR
