    dual monitor system after one monitor died


    I used to have 2 monitors; one died; when I open a program from the quick launch task bar, the program tries to open in the old monitor 2 which no longer exists; I have rebooted; I cannot get the program to move to the one and only monitor; I have tried Alt-Tab to the window then Window-Shift-Left Arrow and Window-Shift-Right Arrow with no success

    :)

    • Are you getting an error message/code when trying to run the dual monitors?

    Hello, I can't find any information about this one so here it goes.

    My Windows 10 is a dual monitor system and I don't get this problem when both monitors are enabled but when I game I disable the secondary display and then on the primary display the Start menu will lose transparency. It makes me sad. dual monitor system after one monitor died :(

    I have installed color profiles for both displays and set them as primary profile for each one. I have also calibrated the color of both displays.

    Primary display is AOC 2460 connected with DVI-D

    Secondary display is Acer G246HL Connected with HDMI

    Graphics card is Nvidia Gerforce 1050 TI 4GB and it has latest drivers

    Operating system is Windows 10 Pro v. 1803 (OS-build 17.134.228)

    Steps to reproduce:

    • On dual monitor system disable secondary monitor
    • Open Start menu and transparency will be lost
    Additional information:

    CPU overclocked with multiplier but was at Stock settings when OS was installed

    GPU overclocked with Asus GPU Tweak II

  4. dual monitor system after one monitor died

    Dual monitor, Dual mouse??

    Hello,

    Please share this information to assist you better.

    • How have you setup dual monitors?
    • Are you referring to use 2 different mouse/keyboard with the dual monitor setup?
    If yes, the mouse or keyboard may function same as one another. Since, it has to be connected to single PC/tower.

    However, setting up 2 different mouse/keyboard with the Dual- monitor setup, it may not function separately for each monitor.

    Let us know the status of the issue. We will assist you further.
