Windows 10: ASUS FX505 distorted display when second monitor is plugged in

Hi,

I have an ASUS FX505 laptop. When an external monitor is attached, everything's fine... until I use "Extended display" mode. Laptop display (the main one) gets distorted and shifted while secondary display looks ok.

Please, I would appreciate it if you can help me.

Thanks a lot.

:)

 

AOC 2269W monitor only displays when a second monitor is plugged in

I'm setting up my computer after moving to a new apartment. My desktop is a self built windows 10 machine that I've had for 6 months now. So now to the issue. I'm going to try

I (want to) have a single monitor setup using my AOC 2269W monitor hooked up to the DVI port on my NVidia GTX 980. After half an hour of troubleshooting to make sure the DVI cord wasn't bad, that is was fully plugged in, that the monitor had power, and everything
else I can think of I'm here begging for an answer.

(with everything plugged in correctly) I power on my desktop and see the lights inside it turn on. I then see the light at the bottom of the monitor turn from orange to green to indicate that it is going from idle to on because it received input. After a
second the screen shows "no display" and turns black (the light also turns from green to orange). I was in a hurry because I had to watch the new Game of Thrones episode live so I hooked up my TV using the HDMI port on my GPU (while my AOC monitor was still
plugged in). All of a sudden the tv AND THE MONITOR turn on... The displays show that the monitor is listed as display #2 so my theory is that the computer is treating as the second screen in a dual monitor set up and when it is the only display plugged in
it's not gonna work.

So is there a way to set my monitor as display #1? Setting it as the main display does not work. What do I have to do to make the monitor identify as 1 instead of 2?

Hi Leslie,

To fix your distorted monitor display, follow the steps below:

• Right-click the desktop.
• Select Display settings.
• Click Advanced display settings.
• Check if the Resolution is at "Recommended" level, if it isn't set it to that and click
