  1. A virtual second screen?


    Hello everyone,

    I have a application that allows me to stream gameplay from one device within a network to another. I want to use this application to 'give' my desktop 2 screens. I couold use the desktop like normally, but also connect my laptop via the application. The thing is that with this application it would normally duplicate the gameplay from one desktop to the second one. The application has a function that allows you to expand the 2 screens, allowing you to use them both while not copying each other.

    This website says I should have a second monitor hooked up to the host PC. I used to have 2 monitors, but I wouldn't be trying this trick if I still did. I was wondering if there is a way in Windows 10 where you make some kind of virtual second desktop which I can 'give' a virtual monitor. This way my Windows 10 would think I have 2 screens and I would be able to use the application like described in the link at the bottom.



    I hope my English was clear enough, i had a rough time explaining exactly what I was looking for!

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing

    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

  3. Project Second screen constantly appearing.

    Hi Norga,

    Thank you for using Windows 10.

    Let us know some more information so that we can diagnose and troubleshoot the issue in a better way:

    • what is the exact issue that you want us to help with? Do you want to get help in projecting a second screen or to remove the popup?
    • As you've said " I tried unsuccessfully to project a screen", do you wish to project a second screen currently?
    • What happened exactly when you tried to project a second screen? Did you receive any error message or any error code?
    The popup comes as the system might not be able to detect the monitors. I suggest you to update the Display drivers, it may force the system to detect the available monitors. Here is the steps:

    • Press “Windows + X” and select Device manger.
    • Locate the driver and expand the driver icon.
    • Right click on the driver icon and click on Update.

    Reply with the information and we'll be happy to assist you.

    A virtual second screen?

    Returning Windows to Second Screen

    Hello Kate,

    Let's try to isolate the issue and see what is preventing you from using Windows to second screen. Kindly provide us the following information:

    • When you turned on your computer, does it give you an extended display for both monitor screen and your laptop?
    • Is your monitor screen already connected to your laptop before turning it on?
    • What cable are you using to connect your second monitor to your laptop?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried?
