    My mouse not working on dual monitors


    Split from this thread. This seems to have been going on for a while. I can't say that I noticed it when I first upgraded to Windows 11. It may or may not have been present. It may have been caused by an early update. The problem is persistent to the extent that if I can't solve this I'll have to go back to Windows 10 and a little, er, sleight of hand to disable all Windows Updates to stop it trying to roll forward again.The mouse will behave normally until I play video. I have two monitors. It's not unusual for me to have a video running on one screen while I work on the other. If I do tha

  2. Dual monitor, Dual mouse??

    Hello,

    Please share this information to assist you better.

    • How have you setup dual monitors?
    • Are you referring to use 2 different mouse/keyboard with the dual monitor setup?
    If yes, the mouse or keyboard may function same as one another. Since, it has to be connected to single PC/tower.

    However, setting up 2 different mouse/keyboard with the Dual- monitor setup, it may not function separately for each monitor.

    Let us know the status of the issue. We will assist you further.

  3. Windows 10 Update - Now my dual monitors do not work

    Hi,





    One of the possible reasons why Windows 10 was unable to detect your dual monitor is an outdated or incompatible graphics driver. To best address your concern, we need you to answer the following questions:



    • Which Windows 10 build are you using?
    • Have you already tried performing the troubleshooting steps suggested by
      Mauro Cavallin on June 16, 2017?
    • Are both of the monitors not working just like what the original poster was experiencing? If yes, have you tried disconnecting one of the monitors? What was the outcome?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?


    We will be waiting for your response.

    My mouse not working on dual monitors

    Dual monitors not working

    Dear Sir/Madam

    I updated my HP Spectre to Windows 10 without too much trouble.

    I run dual monitors off of my laptop using a Targus Display Link Docking Station.

    On ~ December 5th, 2015 Windows 10 installed some sort of upgrade.

    Ever since then I have been unable to get my dual monitors to work.

    The docking station connections for mouse and keyboard seem to work fine. Likewise, my laptop still recognizes my Epson printer and back-up hard drive.

    However the dual monitors (one HP another acer) initially recognize my laptop, then quickly shut off.

    Any suggestions? Clearly seems related to the recent upgrade.

    Thanks
