Remote Desktop Connection problems


Have you tried Remote Desktop Connection, to connect from your Windows 10 laptop to your Windows 7 desktop? Try it first, post back and tell how it went.

Some additional help because you mentioned you are a remote newbie *Wink. The windows 7 related tutorials from our sister site the Seven Forums:

1. On Windows 7 desktop, set network location to either Home or Work (I recommend Work):
   • Network Location - Set as Home, Work, or Public Network - Windows 7 Help Forums
2. On Windows 7 desktop, allow incoming remote connections:
   • Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) - Network - Windows 7 Help Forums
3. On Windows 7 desktop, find out its IP address:
   • IP Address - Locate and Find for Your Computer - Windows 7 Help Forums
4. On Windows 10 laptop, start the Remote Desktop application and connect to the Windows 7 desktop using the IP address from step 3 above (see Part Three in the tutorial):
   • RDC - Connect Remotely to your Windows 10 PC - Windows 10 Forums
   • Notice that although the tutorial is written for Windows 10, it also applies to Windows 7

Try the above, post back how it went.

 

Windows 10 with 3 Monitors

I had 3 monitors working fine in Windows 7, but just upgraded to Windows 10 and can now only get 2 of the 3 monitors to work.

Windows shows 3 monitors in System->Display, but only lets me extend my desktop to any 2 of the 3 monitors. It gives a message saying "The display settings could not be saved. Please try a different combination of display settings." when hitting Apply to
extend the desktop to a 3rd monitor. I can use any 2 of my 3 displays, so they're all connecting and working with the graphics card.

I'm using an Asus R7 250x graphics card, and have installed all of the latest drivers. Windows 10 also has all updates.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

 

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:
