Question about Lenovo ThinkVision M14
The screen is great and with the included cable I can easily connect the monitor via laptop, everything plug and play :-) BUT it does not work on my desktop PC. However, it has several USB 3.2 ports (but not in USB-C format). -> Which cable or adapter would be suitable so that I can also use the screen on my desktop TV as an additional monitor?
Helpful answer
You need a USB-C port that also supports Power Delivery 2.0 and DP1.2 Alt mode. Unfortunately, such a connection cannot be realised via HDMI or USB-A, even not via all USB-C ports (as not all USB-C ports support the protocols mentioned).
I had a similar problem and bought the following adapter.

This '4K/60Hz HDMI - USB Type-C converter' might also help.
Unfortunately digitec doesn't have it in their range, so I found it at Brack.
