  1. Laptop is not detecting a second monitor


    Using Asus ROG zephyrus g14, windows 11, used amd app to update my graphics card drivers and no windows updates. The monitor I am trying to connect to works with the PC it was previously connected to so there is no issue with the cable, and it seems to recognise that something has connected to the monitor but my laptop does not as when I press detect monitor on display settings it says 'we didn't find another display' I have tried turning my PC off and on again as before doing that even the monitor did not recognise the connection but now its only an issue on the laptop side.

    :)

  3. Second monitor not detected

    Hello,

    May we know if you've already tried the suggestion provided by Robert Aldwinckle on forums on this

    thread
    ?

    If Windows can't detect your second monitor, it's usually a driver problem. It could be due to your video driver being outdated, incorrect or faulty. It's also possible that your monitor driver is causing the problem.

    Since the issue occurred after the latest update, it's possible that the video or monitor drivers require an update. Try looking for the updated version of the drivers on the device manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.

    If the issue persists, try to roll back the drivers to the last good configuration. To do that, you may follow these steps:

    • Right-click the Start button and select Device Manager.
    • Right-click your device driver, select Properties, and browse to the
      Driver tab.
    • Press the Roll Back Driver option if available, and Windows 10 will begin the process.

    Let us know how it turns out.

    Second Monitor

    I connected a monitor to my Inspiron Laptop. The second monitor displays the same info as the lap top. When I go to settings it will not detect the monitor. I have upgraded all the drivers. Any suggestions?
