    Transition from Two Monitors to Laptop


    In the office I use a docking station and two monitors. When I use the laptop, Word opens out of view as if the second monitor is there. I can't seem to get it back to view on the laptop. Can anyone help? Thanks.

    :)

  2. Monitor transition from higher resolution laptop

    Hi,

    My setup is a 3840x2160 resolution 17" laptop with a 1920x1080 resolution 32" monitor. Because the resolution is twice as good on my laptop, Windows thinks the screen is twice as big too. Because of this, when transitioning from the laptop to the monitor
    I can only cross 50% of the selected border, meaning regardless of how I position the 2 displays in Display Settings I can't get it to allow me to transition from the laptop to the monitor using an entire border. Is there anything I can do to make this happen?

    Thanks.

    How to adjust multi monitor cursor transition

    Hello ladies and gents of the forum. As the title suggest, I'd like to know how to adjust cursor behavior when transitioning between monitors.

    I'm just built my first (2) pc(s), and am trying to set up monitors for them both.

    pc1 has 2 1080p monitors at 24 and 27 inches. Windows seems to think they are the same size and as a result moving the cursor horizontally from one screen to another results in a change in height, which is slightly annoying.

    pc2 has a 24in 1080p monitor and a 28 in 2160p one. Windows seems to the 2160p one is physically double the size and will not let my mouse onto the smaller monitor unless I transition from the bottom half of the larger one, which as one can imagine is more
    frustrating still.

    Ideally I would like to be able to keep cursor's height (in the real world) when transitioning screens when possible, and when out of range have the cursor "bumped" down to the top of the smaller screen. Failing that, I'd like to at least have pc2 behave
    like pc1, that is to say at least allow screen transition along the entire edge of the bigger screen.

    Apologies if this isn't the right topic. My thinking is that this is a personalization issue, and I was not able to find one specifically related to displays.

    Further apologies if this is a "why didn't you just google (bing?) it" question. I did try to no avail, mostly due to not knowing what to search for.

    Transition from Two Monitors to Laptop

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds
