Windows 10: Combining Displays over the Monitor

Hi Community,I have the following question. I have got 3 monitors, which are connected with a laptop over usb-c and a hub. So, actually I am having 4, but dont mind the laptop in this case. I have a Program that has very many columns around 40-50. Am I able to combine 2 of those monitors together, so that they expand each other and I can expand the Software over the monitor bars. One of the monitors I want to keep not combined with those two. It should just be expanding the laptop. For easier understanding I added a drawing.I already looked up in the Intel Graphic Settings, but here it is on

:)

 

Can not use two monitors. Error message: "The display settings could not be saved. Please try a different combination of display settings"

Hello,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

• Since when are you facing this issue with the monitors?
  
• Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on your computer?
  
• What happens when you try to duplicate the monitors?
  

I suggest you to try changing the display ports of the monitors and check if the second monitor is getting detected.



I suggest you to follow the methods mentioned below and check if that helps.

Method 1: Try rolling back the driver.

To roll back the driver to previous build follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Press and hold the Windows + X key on the keyboard.
   
2. Select Device manager.
   
3. In Device manager, expand Display adaptor.
   
4. Right click on NVIDIA
   Drivers and select Properties.
   
5. Navigate to the Driver tab and click on Roll Back Driver.
   
6. Restart the computer.
   

Method 2: Change the screen resolution.

1. Go to Settings>System>Display.
   
2. Under Resolution, set the resolution as 1024 x 768.
   
3. Set the same resolution on the other monitor.
   

Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.

Hi Kathy,

This issue with monitor display can be caused by screen resolution problems.

As an initial troubleshooting step, try changing the screen resolution by following the steps below:

• Right-click on the desktop screen.
• Select Display settings.
• Click Display.
• Under Resolution, click on the drop-down menu and change the screen resolution.
  
  Note: You can select the most recommended resolution (1920 x 1080) if applicable and see if the issue will persist.
