  3. Laptop won't detect second monitor?

    Hi Ken,

    We'd like to clarify if the issue still persist? If yes, we need to gather the following information to further isolate the issue.

    • Were you able to connect your monitor to your laptop before?
    • Did you make any changes to your computer prior to this issue?
    • Have you tried using a straight connector to your monitor?

    Keep us posted on the issue to assist you better.

    I use a Nvidia GTX 960 GPU, and i am using aVGA cable. I have red somewhere that you can't connect the monitor to the GPU or some shit, and that there is a glitch in Win 10. I have tried to connect it to my laptop and it worked, so i don't understand why it won't work for my other PC.

    Does the monitor have a DVI port you could try?
     
  7. I don't believe that one bit. *Smile I am using VGA just fine. My GPU is a GTX 750 Ti by Gigabyte and I use a DVI-I to VGA adapter (they only cost around 10 bucks) and it works perfectly. *Smile

    If you are using an adapter to hook up to the DVI port perhaps it is not connecting properly, or is a bad adapter.
