  1. Windows 10 Laptop running slow with 2 monitors


    My ThinkPad laptop running Windows 10 is slow when it is plugged into 2 monitors. I've got plenty of RAM and diskspace. I've checked all the video card and mouse drivers. They have the most current. I've checked the screen settings. Both screen refresh rates and size are the same and consistent with the laptop. Windows has the latest updates. Nothing seems to work. Help!

    :)

    Windows 10 Laptop running very slow

    Windows 10 home Single Language

    Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 - 7130U CPU @ 2.70 GHz

    4 GB RAM

    1 TB Hard Disk

    From the fist day onwards I am trying to use better. But it was running very slow.

    I am trying to cleaning the following steps

    1. temp

    2. %temp%

    3. Recent

    4. Prefetch

    I am cleaning every thing, but booting is taking 3 min time. and running applications is very slow.

    I have a PC in my office, it is Pentium Processer, It is running very fast. But I am using original OS, original ms office and tally only, there is no other software using in my laptop.

    Laptop Windows 10 is updated up to July 2019. But booting and opening applications is still slow.

    kindly suggest me how to open windows 10 with min 30 seconds

    Win10 laptop w/laptop display (no others) labeled 2, can't change to 1

    alphanumeric and Helmut, Thank you for your replies.

    1. The drivers were installed when Windows 10 was installed. There was nothing on the laptop prior to installing Windows 10.
    2. I don't have another display to try attaching as suggested.
    3. Not sure if it's always been like this or not. I just started looking at the configuration settings a week or so ago.
    4. To check hardware status, I've run a bunch of Lenovo tests and update checks. Nothing found.
    5. I did the Device Manager suggestion. 2 PnP monitors listed ... clicked "Show Hidden devices" ... found 2 more PnP monitors for a total of 4 ... uninstalled all 4 ... restarted ... same situation. Results: Device Manager now only lists 2 PnP monitors total (no hidden monitors) even though the only monitor is the laptop built-in monitor, but no change on the designation of laptop monitor being number "2" monitor.

    Thanks for your help and suggestions. Not sure why it is like this. Might be something like Win10 compatibility, old hardware, or similar.

    I've taken enough of your time on this. I can live with it as it is. Might decide to upgrade to a new and current laptop, or just proceed as is. Anyway, your responses are greatly appreciated!
