    Dual display question


    In a dual display setup...

    (1) what should Windows do when you unplug one of the displays? For example, when you disconnect the HDMI cable?

    (2) What should Windows do when you plug it back in?

    (3) What should Windows do when you unplug BOTH displays?

    (4) What what should Windows do when you plug both back in?

    I'm asking in case the behavior I'm seeing is abnormal.

    Windows 10.0.19042

    :)

    Laptop display question

    Confusing statement! You want to change the display on your laptop that died?

    Is that correct?

    How do you know its the display that's bad?

    Just google "how to change display on a acer 5745"

    Should get you to step by step instructions. But first make sure its the display that's bad
