Is my projector faulty? The cable connecting the projector to the laptop/desktop is brand new (and clearly ok if the computer detects the device and installs drivers).

When I connect my Lenovo Thinkpad into the Vizio via the same HDMI cable I get both video and sound. When I connect the same laptop into a Samsung TV I get both video and sound. The computer shows an error 'no projector has been detected'. When I connect a HDMI cable from a Voslaptop into a Vizio E65 TV I get video but no sound. If I press the USB-B button on the remote, nothing happens. In the 'source' menu on the projector, I am not offered USB as an option (only D-Sub, Composite and S-Video). However, when I use the 'connect to a projector' Windows app and select any of the options that send a signal to the projector, no signal is received by the projector. When I connect the cable, the computer has detected the connection and installed drivers. However, I want to connect it to my laptop via USB so that I can use the remote to go through PowerPoint presentations.

You can even plug-in the USB-C transmitters to mobile devices such. There are no networking requirements (although it can be connected to a network for updates), and no software to run. Connect an external display or a projector. You simply plug-in a transmitter to the HDMI or USB-C Thunderbolt port on your notebook, push the button and your laptop is now connected to the projector. I can connect it successfully to either device using the supplied VGA cable. Connect to a TV or another HDMI-in enabled device. I have tried to connect it to both my laptop (Toshiba, running Win7 - 32bit) and my desktop (Dell Vostro Win 7 - 32bit).
