    windows to tv

    Windows cannot be installed on your TV, but you could connect it as a second monitor or primary monitor. See how to setup a dual display configuration:

    Dual monitors on Windows 10

    Hi Gina France,

    Do you have it set for extend or duplicate?

    Well, then it should work. Are you saying it's duplicating instead of extending?

    Dual monitors on Windows 10

    IF it's a true duplicate, when you move the mouse, you will see the pointer moving on both screens; otherwise, you have the same wallpaper on both screens and they aren't duplicates.

    On some video cards DVI and HDMI are output on the same connector as they are both digital. If you have a analog connector and one or both then you can have two screens. Also the same background will be on both screens.

    To have them show different backgrounds in extended mode, you have to enable desktop background slideshow.
    You'll still be able to mount different applications in each.

    Forgive me, but I'm kinda confused here.

    Is it duplicating or is it extending like it should?

    Dual monitors on Windows 10

    Nothing to be confused about. I hooked an extra monitor to a gaming machine. They both have WP10 on them. I have no issues with that. But everything I do with one monitor. The same thing happens to the extra monitor.

    Okay! So it's duplicating when it should be extending. Correct?

    Have you tried using different cables to connect them?
