  1. 2nd Monitor Resolution is not allowing to set according to monitor specifications


    In Past my 2nd monitor was on resolution 3440x1440 but recently due to some unknown stupid reason it is downgraded to 1980x1080. I did everything that I could try but failed to achieve desired result. For exampleI have updated drivers, changed default display from Intel to Nvidia

  2. Set specific programs to open on the 2nd Monitor

    Hi,

    As of yet, there is no specific option that allows you to set certain programs to open on a specified display monitor. Programs open on whichever display monitor is chosen as the main monitor.

    For advanced troubleshooting, we suggest that you post your query in our
    TechNet forums
    where we have experts who are more knowledgeable regarding the matter.

  3. 2nd Monitor


    2nd Monitor Resolution is not allowing to set according to monitor specifications 36e097ff-f842-4a98-9a50-09efba693b40?upload=true.jpg

    I’m running Window 10. I have just connected a 2nd monitor. My default monitor is Eizo CS2420 resolution and needs to remain 1900x1200.

    My 2nd monitor Dell U2412M is duplicating my default monitor however, the screen and icons are far too big and need to change the resolution for the 2nd screen. I have gone into Display Settings clicked on the 2nd screen
    but the icon for changing resolution is faded out and can’t change settings for resolution. When I click on Detect it come up in red ‘Didn’t detect another display’

    2nd Monitor

    Hi

    Thank you for helping me. When it is on duplicated both monitors have same resolution, however, the 2nd monitor the text is unreadable and screen blurred. If on extended my default monitor is fine but the 2nd monitor goes off and my laptop screen comes on.
    I wish to have both default and second monitor displaying at the same time. As it is the 2nd monitor drop down resolution is showing 800x600 and is faded out and unable to change it.
