Windows 10: Monitor out of range

I use a dual monitor, one connected through HDMI with a 1920x1080 resolution and the other through a vga to displayport adapter, with a 1366x768 resolution.A few weeks back my adapter for the 2nd monitor stopped working so I bought a new one, the problem is that when I plugged it, it says "out of range" and it won't let me use my 2nd monitor. I've tried everything: -Reinstalling graphic card drivers normally.-Reinstalling them from safe mode-Return my adapter for a new one this one didn't work either-Update windows-Change resolution from "advanced display settings" and then "Display adapter

:)

 

Dual monitor issue - 2nd monitor "out of range"

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forum.



The error message Out of Range usually occurs when the video card feeds the monitor, a signal stream in excess from what the monitor can handle.



I suggest you to try the steps listed below and see if it works for you:

• Boot the computer in
  Safe Mode, and right click on the Desktop.
  
• Select Display Properties and choose a lower resolution.
  
• Reboot the machine and check if it works.
  
• If the issue persists, boot the computer again in
  Safe Mode, and go to Display Properties.
  
• Click on Advanced Display Settings, and choose
  Display Adapter properties.
  
• Under Monitor tab, choose
  60 Hz as the Screen Refresh rate.
  
• Apply the changes, boot the PC in normal mode to see if it works.
  

Regards,

 

"Out of range" Monitor

Today, after 6 months of using my second monitor (LG 27MK60TM-B) with my ASUS ZenBook (UX330UA-AH55), the LG monitor now reads "out of range." I connected my computer to a different monitor, and the picture is awful, but it works. I tried reinstalling
the graphics card drivers, following several suggestions from other threads, but no luck. Any ideas?

 

Monitor 1 out of Range Error

Hi Jill,

It is possible that the signal from your video adapter exceeds the scan range of your monitor. Also, It is possible that the refresh rate of your
PC is incompatible with your monitor. To further assist your concern, kindly answer these following questions:

• Is your monitor equipped with either G-Sync™ or FreeSync™ technology?
• Are you connecting your monitor to your GPU or to your motherboard?

We'll be looking forward for your reply.

Regards.
