    Windows 10 Not Recognizing Second Monitor


    HP EliteBook 2570, Win 10 Profesional, new updated, all drivers updated, Docking station with 2 identical monitors ThinkVision 24inch, connected by VGA and display port cable, in Settings no detection of second monitor. By restarting of win, the one or another monitor is active, no possibility for me to choose which one, but never the settings can be changed by me to configure 2 monitors. Do anyone have any clue?

    :)

    windows not recognizing second monitor

    Hello,

    Windows may not recognize another external display device if the display drivers are outdated, or that the monitor is turned off or not plugged in correctly, etc. For us to isolate the issue in connecting a second monitor in Windows 10, kindly respond to
    the questions below:

    • Have you made any significant changes to your device prior to the issue?
    • Did the second monitor work before?
    • Have you tried using the monitor to a different computer?
    • What happens if you disconnect your primary monitor and connect the second monitor to make it the main monitor?

    We look forward to your response.

    Note: The above steps holds good for Windows 10 as well.

    I hope this information is helpful.
