High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)

If your monitor supports HDCP, it can receive high-definition content. High-definition content is available in many sources, such as Blu-ray Disc devices or HDTV air or cable broadcasts. If you do not have an HDCP-enabled monitor, you may see a black screen or a lower resolution picture when playing high-definition protected content. Your computer graphic card and monitor must both support HDCP to display protected content.

Connect the built-in monitor speakers to the computer by using the audio cable, as shown in the following illustration.
