  1. Monitor extend


    I have an issue with monitor extend. When I tried to extend the monitor, the monitor didn't react properly, it looks like the monitor is freeze but the cursor is visible and you can moving the cursor but when I tried clicking on an object on the screen or use right click nothing happened. Other monitor projection works, when I tried to detect monitors, system see both monitors.

    I already tried update graphics, restart notebook (DELL Latitude) but nothing happened.

    :)

  3. extending monitors

    Hello,

    I hope I can help you today

    solote allow two monitors but here I leave this possible solution

    Step 1

    Connect a monitor to the normal video card, using the necessary cable (DVI, VGA or HDMI). This will be the main screen, so place it directly in front of your computer's cabinet.

    Step 2

    Connect the second monitor to the alternative port of the video card, and then restart the computer. The PC will automatically detect the second monitor.

    Step 3

    Go to the "Show options" window by right clicking on the desktop, then select the "Properties" option. From there, click on the second monitor (which will appear in the drop-down menu), and then activate the "Extend my desktop on this screen" checkbox.

    Step 4

    Connect the third monitor to your original video card (if it has three outputs) or to another video card, and then restart the computer one more time.

    Step 5

    Go to the "Show options" window by right clicking on the desktop, then select the "Properties" option. From there, click on the third monitor (which will appear in the drop-down menu), and then activate the "Extend my desktop to this screen" checkbox

    regards...

    Monitor extend

    Unable to extend monitor display

    Hi Jay Jap,

    thanks again for your reply.

    I checked the screen resolution settings through windows and then through the Nvidia graphics cards.

    Windows detected both monitors but Nvidia settings didn't.

    I downloaded and installed the Nvidia drivers again and it's working fine. Simple solution, not sure why I had to install the drivers again? But thanks for your help, your suggestion to check if the monitors were being detected prompted me that it had to
    be a graphics card issue.
