Windows 10: Multiple Monitor Problem on windows 11

A fiend on mine has a laptop and the screen has been damaged. The laptop is working but the screen is dead so he plugs the the TV into the laptop via a HDMI cable and that works but his partner cannot watch the TV while he is using his laptop. I have an old monitor an Analog1280 x 1024 I could give him. He is not very computer literate so I said I would get it working. Just plugging the monitor did not work but I expected this so I had brought a bit of kit which plugs into a USB port and provides 2 more HDMI ports plus more USB ports and an ethernet cable port so I could plug the TV in and u

i have a problem to connect 2 monitors.

Hi Ron,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

• What changes did you make in the BIOS? As making the changes in the BIOS is only recommended by Microsoft if done by the manufacturer.
  

• How are you connecting to the 2nd monitor?

I suggest you to follow the steps from this article below:

[Applies to Windows 10 as well]

Regards.

 

Mouse cursor sticks to edge of only 2 of the 3 multiple monitors (Windows 11)

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues related to mouse cursor movement on multiple displays



In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please reply with the answers to the questions below:

1. What is the make and model number of your PC?
   
2. What kind of cable do you use to connect the monitors?
   
3. Are you aware of any recent changes on the PC prior to this issue?
   

Meanwhile, I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below:

Update or reinstall the mouse drivers from Mice and other pointing devices section in device manager

Update drivers in Windows (microsoft.com)

Once done, try to re-arrange the monitors and check if the issue persists

New User Account

If the issue persists, I would also suggest you to create a new user account with administrative rights and check if the issue persists. Creating a new user account will not remove any data, app or settings from your current user account, this is just a troubleshooting step to eliminate the possibility of user profile corruption. Refer this article to create a local user or administrator account in Windows 11
