Windows 10: windows 10 multiple displays

I was forced to update to Windows 10 so Microsoft sent me a USB drive that walked me through the steps. I had 3 video cards and 3 monitors set up on my computer running under Windows 7 but under Windows 10 only one of them works.

So I went through all the support docs and followed the steps.

Checked the cables and replaced the cables

Rebooted the computer

Rolled back the display driver

Rebooted the computer

Updated to the latest display driver

Rebooted the computer


Even did an online chat with some crappy Windows Support Tech and he had me re-do all the same steps above because apparently he is just reading the support docs too.


Still only one display is working. The other display is getting no signal. Its like Windows 10 disabled the video card. Feeling like I need to take the computer to a repair shop and pay someone a hundred dollars to set up my computer from scratch. Why does Windows 10 suck so much and why did they force us to use it?
