  2. Desktop with dual monitors one black

    Hi Frank,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    I understand the you have tried to resolve the issue and tried many steps. I really appreciate your efforts in resolving this issue. As you have mentioned that switching the cables make both the monitor
    work so I believe its not the driver issue. I would suggest you to try connecting another cable and check if the issue persists.

    Below is the Microsoft help article on How to connect a second monitor/ Multi monitors.

    Note: The steps for Windows 8/8.1 applies to Windows 10.

    If you are facing black screen issue on the second monitor I suggest you to refer to the below thread and follow the steps given:

    Hope this will fix the issue, if not let us know with the updated status and we will be happy to assist you further.

    Thank You.
