  1. Get screensavers on two monitors with photo slideshow


    Hello there,


    I would like to change my screensaver to a selection of photos on my computer. This is no problem at first, but when I leave my PC for a bit, the screensaver only shows on my primary monitor. The other one is just black. I would like the images to appear on both monitors at the same time. Is there a way to set this up within Windows? Or will I have to find a third party program to do this?


    Before I decided to change screensavers, I had used the League of Legends screensaver program which had the images appear on both monitors without a hitch.


    Thanks,


    SM

    :)

    Screensaver slideshow does not display correctly whith dual monitors set to "extend desktop"

    Hi Tom,

    Since you've already checked the Screen Saver Settings, kindly answer the following question for clarification:

    • Have you tried turning off the second monitor while assigning the screensaver slideshow to the primary monitor?
    • Have you tried disabling and re-enabling the screensaver?

    We also suggest that you make the screensaver slideshow to appear first at the primary monitor properly before troubleshooting with the second monitor.

    Kindly get back to us for clarification.

    Looking for a screen saver with beautiful photos or designs

    Hey guys,

    I'm looking for a screensaver that will work with my ultra wide monitor (3440x1440). More specifically, a screensaver that comes with beautiful landscape photos and/or artistic designs. I'd like something that can perform like a slideshow.

    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    Cheers,

    grecinos

    Screensaver slideshow does not display correctly whith dual monitors set to "extend desktop"

    Hi, and thanks for the response.

    To you questions:

    • Yes the screensaver slideshow works perfectly when only one monitor is selected / available
    • Yes, I've switched on and off several times, rebooted, etc, many times, with no effect.


    I can also add that the “Background” wallpaper based on the same set of pictures works fine on both monitors with different pictures on each monitor. The problem is only realted to the Screensaver.



    Furthermore, in the past when on Windows 8.1, the Screensaver worked well with dual monitors. Initially with the Screensaver being displayed on both monitors. After some Windows 8 update the second monitor went black while
    monitor 1 showed the Screensaver slideshow as it should. (I see several others complained about loosing the picture on the second monitor)



    However my problem is worse. In my case I only get HALF a picture on monitor 1 )and black screen on monitor 2). Photo attached.
