  1. I cant change the orientation and the resolution of my display


    So I have 2 monitors hooked up to my laptop via a thunderbolt to hdmi splitter adapter. I am able to change the resolution and orientation of the main display but not the secondary one, I also am not able to adjust the refresh rate of the second one(It showing the max. at 30 when its suppoed to be at 60hz). All of the option I mentioned above are grayed out. The windows version is up to date. I am also using default Hdmi cable which should support 4k 60hz

    Laptop ,Main monitor , Secondary Monitor, Adapter

  3. Display resolution keeps changing

    Hi Rick,

    It might be caused by a faulty driver that's why your display resolution keeps changing. We
    suggest that you uninstall and reinstall the display driver, see steps below:

    • Press Windows key + X and click on
      Device Manager.
    • For graphics cards, expand the Display adapters category, right click your graphics card and select Uninstall.
    • Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.

    Problem with display orientation

    Hi Pave,

    The recent Windows update can change your system settings and could've affected the screen orientation of your device. To enable this feature, we suggest that you update your display drivers by following these steps:

    • Type in Device Manager on the search box.
    • Press Enter.
    • Click the drop-down arrow for Display adapters.
    • Right-click the driver and Select Properties.
    • Select Diver tab.
    • Click on Update Driver.
    • Click OK.

    You can also visit your device's support website, to check for the latest driver that are compatible on your device.

    Do post back should you need further assistance.
