Windows 10: Program crashes when launched on secondary monitor with onboard graphics

Please help me before i do bad things to my computer!When i start a program on my secondary monitor this monitor is driven with onboard graphics they crash or behave weird. For example, when i start fusion 360 on this monitor it just wont start and stops working, when i launch prusa slicer it starts but if i slice a 3d-file it crashes. However i can start prusa on my secondary monitor then drag it to my primary and have no problem slicing a 3d-file. My temporary workaround is to unplug my second monitor and then launch the program so it starts on my primary monitor driven with my gpu then

:)

Windows 10 not recognizing second monitor plugged in Onboard Graphics

I would suggest checking your UEFI settings.sometimes there is an option named iGPU - multi monitor or similar,under chipset settings so that when you have a PCIe GPU the onboard graphics get disabled.

1)Check UEFI settings,try making onboard as primary

2)Check iGPU and discrete are working properly ( through device manager)

3)I wouldn't reccomend any VGA - HDMI adapters since analog to digital and reverse usually doesn't work very well ( in my experience at least)

 

How do you resize a secondary monitor for lining up?

Hello,Lemon Kluver

Thank you for reaching out with your question about resizing a secondary monitor in Windows 11. I understand the importance of having your monitors properly lined up for an optimal display experience. To provide you with the most accurate guidance, I'd like to gather some additional information:

1. Could you please clarify the specific issue you're facing with resizing the secondary monitor? Is it that the secondary monitor's resolution is not being detected correctly, or is it a positioning issue with aligning the monitors side by side?
   
2. Have you installed the latest graphics drivers for your system and monitor?
   
3. What type of connection are you using to connect the secondary monitor (e.g., HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA, etc.)?
   
4. Can you confirm the make and model of the secondary monitor?
   
5. Have you checked the display settings in Windows 11 to ensure they are correctly detecting and identifying the secondary monitor?
   

Additionally, please let me know if you have tried any specific troubleshooting steps or adjustments so far. Any details you can provide about the current setup, such as the resolution settings and how the monitors are currently positioned, will be helpful in understanding the issue.

Once I have this information, I'll be able to offer you more targeted instructions to properly resize and line up your secondary monitor in Windows 11.

Looking forward to your response so that I can assist you further.
