It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available. Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.Plugging your laptop into a television or projector is something many of us do on a daily basis. But cords can be as limiting as they are ugly. There are an increasing number of solutions to this, but one that is already built in to many laptops is Intel’s Wireless Display (WiDi) solution. WiDi allows you to send high definition video and audio to a display wirelessly allowing for completely cable-free presentations and a greater flexibility in computer and display placement. With Smart TVs becoming nearly ubiquitous now more and more of these displays also bundle in support for wireless display technologies, including WiDi. For those displays that don’t have it built in there are external adapters available for purchase such as the Netgear PTV3000. Plug the external adapter into power and HDMI behind your display and you’re free to move your WiDi laptop to wherever you need it. We used an HP EliteBook 840 and an LG 50LB6100 Smart TV for this example. Virtually any new computer that includes an Intel processor, Intel HD graphics, and Intel wireless card supports WiDi. A wide variety of Smart TVs also include support for WiDi such as LG, Samsung, and Toshiba. As for projectors, both Epson and NEC have product lines that come with WiDi support. Intel has a short list of devices and product lines that support WiDi here. Although more and more displays support Intel’s Wireless Display, most have the feature disabled by default.
