  1. Windows 10 Monitor 1 and 2 are not showing in Display


    I want to add a 2nd monitor to my son's PC and when I got to display to extend from 1 to 2 monitors, NEITHER monitor boxes are showing. Detect doesn't find either of them. My son is currently using Monitor 1 to play his game but I wanted to add the other monitor and I can. Graphics card is up to 4 monitors, so all good there. What do I need to do to get Monitor 1 and Monitor 2 to show in Display? Pls help as I cannot find any support on any other channels

    :)

  2. 2 Monitor Display - Display 1 stuck on wrong monitor

    I have a 2-monitor setup. As recently as yesterday (1/20/2020), the display settings had Display 1 on the left monitor (main display) and Display 2 on the right monitor. Today, Display 1 is on the right monitor regardless of how I configure the display settings.

    In the top screenshot, in the image below, Display 1 is on the right and Display 2 is on the left in the display settings. This is consistent with the layout that 'Identify' ... identifies. In the bottom screenshot, the display settings show Display 1 on
    the left and Display 2 on the right, however 'Identify' shows Display 1 on the right and Display 2 on the left.

    For what it is worth, these screenshots are edited to be consistent with my monitor setup. When the display settings show Display 1 on the left and Display 2 on the right, both the cursor and a raw screenshot behave as if that is true.
    However, Display 1 is stuck on the right monitor, so these screenshots show what I am seeing.

    I have tried unplugging and re-plugging the monitors, uninstalling and re-installing the display drivers, and rebooting the computer. Nothing satisfactorily resolves my problem, which is that regardless of the display settings, Display 1 is stuck on the
    right monitor. I could make Display 2 my main display and have that be on the left, which would
    functionally make the setup do what I want, but would not resolve the actual problem of Display 1 being stuck on the right monitor. Since the displays were set how I wanted them yesterday, clearly something has changed, and I'd like to know what.

    Windows 10 Monitor 1 and 2 are not showing in Display

    4870x2 won't display at 1680x1050 at all!

    OK. Now I know what ur problem is. Step by step:
    1. Go to Catalyst Control Center
    2. Click on the word "Graphic" right on top left corner. It will display drop down menu
    3. Click on Display monitor and will see the list of monitor at near bottom
    4. Right Click the monitor and select "Configure". It will show up the window
    5. There will be 3 option to select. Select the middle one and then click on the tab which show the bar with 15%.
    6. Drag the bar to max, and the screen will stretch to the native resolution 1680x1050.
    7. Also click the tab with showing RGB drop down list and select the last one (it will change to image quality for pc).
    That's it. Good Luck.
