  1. Screen freeze after switching from dual monitor to single monitor


    I have been having screen freeze issues when switching from dual monitor to single monitor to use my capture card. It seems that whenever I go from dual screen to single screen, the primary monitor will sometimes freeze. I can move my mouse but nothing is clickable. I have tried swapping from using a physical switch and changing the settings from extending the display to only display 1 and it still freezes. Would appreciate if anyone has any idea why this happens

    :)

  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. My screen is switching without a dual monitor

    For some reason, my single monitor switches screens constantly. I don't even have dual monitor on. It always makes another screen from the right come in, so I can never go back and play something, or d o what I was doing. The sounds still appear in the
    background, and I have to restart my computer to get it to normal. I think I might've press Ctrl + Windows, but when I tried that, it didn't do anything. I just got a new SSD card, and its like a new computer. When I first got the computer it did this too.
    Help?

    Screen freeze after switching from dual monitor to single monitor

    Dual monitor setup, Monitor #2 keeps losing color calibration.

    Running dual monitors in Win 10 and when going through the Color calibration steps on monitor #2 (Control panel / Display / Calibrate color) the settings stick as long as the 2nd monitor is active.

    If I switch to single display (Windows Key + P / PC Screen only) then the 2nd monitor loses its color calibration. Also anytime I reboot my PC (Even if I have both monitors active) the 2nd monitor loses my calibration.

    The 2nd monitor has a fairly strong bias for the color Green so I can always tell right away.

    I'm probably overlooking something and was hoping someone might of dealt with this before Screen freeze after switching from dual monitor to single monitor :)
