    Laptop screen not detected when using external monitor


    Hi

    As the title says, I have just upgraded my laptop to windows 10 from windows 8, I usually use the laptop screen and an external monitor, for dual screen, however in windows 10, with the external monitor connected it does not detect and other screens, am I missing something or have things changed under windows 10?

    :)

    Windows 10 and displaying content on two external monitors.

    Windows 10 display options is not detecting both my external monitors. It detects the laptop and one of the external monitors. I need to display different screens of information on each external monitor. What do I need to do to get both external monitors
    recognized?

    Reinstalled Windows 10 doesn't detect 2nd external monitor

    When connected with the cable to a different laptop, the monitor still turns on, but the laptop does not detect it.

    My laptop does detect a different external monitor connected to it. Before redownloading WIN10, I was using my laptop screen and two different monitors with no trouble (except that the older monitor, the one
    that now doesn't work, got pretty twitchy when I used Skype).

    Press WIN + P, does it give you the option to duplicate or extend the display to the laptop screen?
