  1. Notifications on second monitor?


    I have two monitors, this isn't exactly an uncommon setup at this point in time so I'm hoping there'll be enough people with this need to justify me posting it here.

    Basically, I want notifications to appear on my secondary monitor, rather than my primary. I've looked around and I haven't found a method unfortunately.

    I know theoretically I could change my primary monitor to my secondary monitor but that's not ideal, I play a lot of games and they tend to default to the primary monitor, which is reasonable. I still want to play games on my current primary monitor, while having notifications appear on my secondary monitor if at all possible.

    I've tried disabling having taskbars on both monitors, and moving my taskbar over to my secondary monitor, but I've had no luck. Notifications still appear on my primary.

    Any help would be appreciated, it's not terribly urgent but it's a general annoyance I've had with windows 10 since launch

  2. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

  3. Second monitor screen resolution problem

    Hi,

    For us to properly isolate the issue with your second monitor screen resolution, we would like to know the following:


    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?

    • When did the issue first begin?

    • To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you try resetting your monitor settings, and check if the issue still persists. You may refer to your monitor on how to reset it.

    We look forward to your response.

    Issues while installing a second monitor in Windows 10

    Really? I get a canned answer and nothing else? I posted that I had tried everything that I could find posted online. I did read the post that Andre suggested multiple times prior to posting this request for help. None of it helped.

    My computer does not recognize that there is a second monitor is plugged in. The small step of changing the settings so I can put stuff on the second monitor ISN'T the issue. I am not that dumb. in the device manager there is only the single monitor listed
    at one point there was a unknown device listed but my computer did not know if it was a monitor or a printer.

    There has to be someone out there that knows how to fix this

    Please Help
