    Surface Pro dual monitor issue


    I have a surface pro with windows 10.

    i wanted to extend my surface display to a second monitor (HP2311x) and i seem to be detecting the monitor in Device Manager. However, when i go to the Display panel to extend the display, it does not detect the second monitor.


    i have updated the driver for HP2311x via device manager as well as the Intel HD Graphics.

    I have also uninstalled the HP2311x from device manager and re-added it thinking the driver for it might be corrupt.

    However, i am thinking if i need to uninstall the Intel HD graphics since it might not be detecting the external monitor.

    Anybody with a similar issue that has resolved it?

    :)

    Surface Pro Connecting to Monitor

    Hello,

    I have a Surface Pro 6. I have it connected to a monitor to be used as a second screen. The resolution on the monitor is not the best quality. I have tired adjusting it, but can't seem to get it clear. Any suggestions?
