My TV will blink at times and will eventually disconnect all video in the middle of display. I've got the same issue, only not as bad. The problem now seems worse: it disconnect in less than 15 seconds and keeps reconecting and disconneting many times, turning the TV screen black until, after about 10 times in this game, it disconnect permanently.Ĥ)The WiDi application asked to download and install a new version V 2.1.42.0, I have accepted, it installed normally, but the problem remains.ĥ)Run Dell Tests for Intel HD Graphics and Intel Centrino 100% OK.Ħ)Run Intel Tests for PROSet Wireless and the results and reports shows it is 100% OK ģ)Just have uninstalled WiDi V 2.1.42.0 and re-installed the Intel HD Graphics Driver from Dell site (V 8.) and re-installed the old version Intel WiDi Conection Manager V2.1.41.0 A02 from Dell site. The real problem is that there is a bad overall performance and reliability in this connection. The PC WiDi connects OK with the D-Link TV Adapter initially. This is normal? What is the latest firmware level for DHD-131? If it is not 2.1.16.0 how to get it? ThanksĢ)The D-Link TV Adapter connects OK to TV. Versions of the related WiDi drivers and software:įirmware: 2.0.39.0 (original) and 2.1.16.0 (updated)Īnother thing is that the blue screen logo on MainStage shows “WiDi 2009-2010” whereas in Windows 7 WiDi software it shows “WiDi 2010-2011”. A complete Dell hardware test showed no problems with the Laptop hardware. I have tested the WiDi connection using another TV (Samsung 32"), have reset the D-Link firmware to factory default, restored my Windows 7 to a previous restore point down to one week ago, installed new Laptop BIOS, reinstalled the WiDi application, but nothing resolved the problem.Īs my Windows 7 Laptop is kept update by Microsoft (Windows Update) and I usually keep the hardware drivers updated using the Dell Support Center Tool, I suspect that some of updates for drivers or related software is causing the actual problem. All this is making WiDi totally unusable. The problem occurs using the Clone display option and using the Extended display as well, appears that the problems is the same. Other times there is a visible lag between the image in laptop and the image in the TV or sometimes the TV screen shows little coloured squares pixels and this causes the restart of the connection again and again. The WiDi starts OK, but it have very poor performance, interrupting the video transmission after less than a few minutes, keeps turning the TV screen black and restarting again, sometimes shutdown the connection permanently. Two days ago, I have decided to use it again, and for my surprise the WiDi now has serious performance and reliability problems, and it is totally unusable!. The WiDi interface have successfully updated the D-Link firmware and I have used it a few days without any problem. I had successfully made the setup of my WiDi with a LG 47" TV, and I have tested the WiDi a little without any problem, using the Clone Display option and the Extended Display Option (1920x1080). Two month ago I received my new Laptop Dell Inspiron 15R (N5110) with Intel Core i5 Sandy Bridge, WiFi Centrino N1030, Intel HD Graphics, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bits and my new D-Link DHD-131 MainStage TV Adapter.
