  1. Dual Displays


    Hi...
    I'm setting up dual displays 1 regular ViewSonic computer monitor -VGA connection / 1 BenQ TV screen - HDMI connection.

    My trouble is getting the screen resolution sizes to work for both screens. The best I've got so far is the setting for "Duplicate These Displays" / at 1600 x 900 ... But the window is overflowing the edges of my screens. Also, when I revert to this resolution setting, a box appears in the corner of my BenQ screen stating: "HDMI 1680 x 1050 @ 60" ....

    I'm wondering: Is the 1680 x 1050 my BenQ screen default resolution? And if it is, am I supposed to be able to set my Windows display to this resolution the drop down menu in the display settings does not include this resolution combination ??? Or am I supposed to be able to set my BenQ TV screen's resolution to a compatible Windows setting Change my BenQ resolution somehow to 1600 x 900?

    Appreciate any help - cheers!

    :)

    To assist you further regarding your concern, uninstalling the display driver doesn't mean that the display will be disabled. On the other hand, we recommend that you perform the

    • Click Start, type troubleshooting and select
      Troubleshooting under Control Panel.
    • Click on Hardware and Sound and select Hardware and Devices.
    • A window will pop up, click on Next and follow the on-screen instructions to apply the suggested fixes.
