  1. 3 Monitors are shown but only 2 are connected


    I downloaded cuda for my computer and now I see 3 monitors instead of 2 in the computer settings. When I move my mouse across the monitors to the third one I don't really have it dissapears and I have to drag it a lot back before it enters my actual monitors again.One of my two monitors is connected to "Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti" and also to Microsoft basic display driver. Is there a way to ignore on of the displays?

    :)

    Hi Ron,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    • What changes did you make in the BIOS? As making the changes in the BIOS is only recommended by Microsoft if done by the manufacturer.
    • How are you connecting to the 2nd monitor?
    I suggest you to follow the steps from this article below:

  4. 3 Monitors are shown but only 2 are connected

    Windows 10 does not recognize dual monitors

    Hi,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    What is the make and model of the computer?

    Please follow the steps:

    Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Display\Screen Resolution

    and make sure both monitors are shown and "Extend desktop to this display" is selected for each monitor.

    If both monitors are not shown, try clicking on "Detect"

    Check Device manager to see if the video card or cards (if you are using more than one) and both monitors are shown in the list of devices.

    You can also try updating video card driver:

    Follow the steps:

    1. Press Windows key+X.

    2. Device manager and select the video card.

    3. Right click on the driver and select update.

    Connect multiple monitors to your PC

    Note: The above mentioned steps are also applicable to Windows 10.

    Thank You.
