  1. Some menu items in Chrome not working on secondary monitor


    Hi I have an Alienware M15 R4 laptop. I run two external monitors on the device. I have an intermittent problem where the Chrome browser on the second monitor will not allow me to click certain menu items both in the browser itself and on some website. For example I have a bunch of items in the bookmark bar but I can't click the double arrows to see the items that are hidden. On several website during check out procedures I can't click certain options in the check out pages such as a drop down menus to select payment type. If I move the window to my main monitor it works fine also an exte

    No Fan Control menu item in ATITool 0.26

    .27b3 problems with 8800GT 256MB

    I tried the .27b3 and encountered some problems.
    • Default profile comes up 0.00 / 0.00
    • App hard locks
    • Still no fan menu
    In the setup menu the following items appear:
    • Overclocking
    • Artifact scanning
    • Temperature monitoring
    • Gamma control
    • Startup
    • 3D-detection
    • Driver tweeks
    • Miscellaneous
    I'm running XP SP2 running NVIDIA 169.21 drivers.

    The device details are displayed correctly now.

    Regards,

  3. Unable to interact with the content on the secondary monitor

    I have three monitors plugged into a evga GTX 1060 ACX 2.0, the system is running latest Windows 10 pro.

    Every night I put the computer to sleep. Occasionally, and more frequently the past week, I wake the computer in the morning to find very strange behavior:

    • Whatever monitor is my main display works perfectly
    • Secondary monitors turn on and show the last content they had (any open browsers, programs, etc)
    • I can move my mouse into the secondary screens and see it moving around just fine
    • When I click or do any kind of interaction on those screen, the visuals do not update (again, mouse around moving is fine)
      • Click a window, the window focus never shows; scroll or press a button on a website, doesn't show any changes; click the Windows button, menu doesn't open
    • However, I can still interact with the screens despite not being able to see what I'm changing
      • Drag a window off the screen and it magically appears on the main display; press the 1-Click buy on an Amazon item, receive it 2-5 business days later
    • Changing the main display changes the screen I can interact with
    • Mucking with the resolution of the secondary monitors does not fix the issue but it does update their visuals
    • Display driver details:
      • Date: 2018-11-12
      • Version: 25.21.14.1694
    • I am in the process of downloading NVidia 2019 drivers to see if that helps

    The only fix I've found so far (with my limited experience debugging display issues) is restarting the computer. Help!

    ***Modified title from: Secondary display content is frozen, can still see mouse and "interact" with frozen windows***

  4. Some menu items in Chrome not working on secondary monitor

    Single monitor=no transparency in Start menu on dual monitor system

    Hello, I can't find any information about this one so here it goes.

    My Windows 10 is a dual monitor system and I don't get this problem when both monitors are enabled but when I game I disable the secondary display and then on the primary display the Start menu will lose transparency. It makes me sad. Some menu items in Chrome not working on secondary monitor :(

    I have installed color profiles for both displays and set them as primary profile for each one. I have also calibrated the color of both displays.

    Primary display is AOC 2460 connected with DVI-D

    Secondary display is Acer G246HL Connected with HDMI

    Graphics card is Nvidia Gerforce 1050 TI 4GB and it has latest drivers

    Operating system is Windows 10 Pro v. 1803 (OS-build 17.134.228)

    Steps to reproduce:

    • On dual monitor system disable secondary monitor
    • Open Start menu and transparency will be lost
    Additional information:

    CPU overclocked with multiplier but was at Stock settings when OS was installed

    GPU overclocked with Asus GPU Tweak II
