windwolf94 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I'm having a problem with my computer again. I have a dell xps 15 with an Nvidia 525m graphics card. Drivers are up to date for both the card, and direct x. I finally got skyrim working with nvidia graphics after switching back to windows 7 (Thank god. 8 sucked.) and now, although i can play with decent graphics, my hdmi port still isn't working right. I can start skyrim on the tv, and it gets to the menu, but when i click continue and it starts loading, my computer shuts itself down. I've tried all graphics levels, all resolutions, and even tried putting the sound on the lowest setting, and still nothing. Skyrim worked on the tv before i installed windows 8, and switching back to 7 has solved most of my issues, except for this one. I miss playing skyrim on my big screen :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

windwolf94 Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 Tried through windows and manual with a clean install. Still nothing. Crashed with no error message or anything, just like someone popped the battery out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
