  1. Windows 11 – Second monitor loosing identity.


    Hi, I have a windows 11 desktop with 2 Asus monitors. One of the monitors is connected to the HDMI port and the second monitor is connected to the display port.When the desktop goes to sleep the monitor connected to the display port loses its identity. Using Device Manager – the identity changes from “Generic Monitor VE248” to “MS EDID Override” and as a result the scaling on the monitor changes.Rebooting the PC resets the monitor back to “Generic Monitor VE248” and the scaling is fixed.I’ve checked that the latest drivers are installed for the monitors and the display adaptors.I’ve checke

  3. Issues while installing a second monitor in Windows 10

    Really? I get a canned answer and nothing else? I posted that I had tried everything that I could find posted online. I did read the post that Andre suggested multiple times prior to posting this request for help. None of it helped.

    My computer does not recognize that there is a second monitor is plugged in. The small step of changing the settings so I can put stuff on the second monitor ISN'T the issue. I am not that dumb. in the device manager there is only the single monitor listed
    at one point there was a unknown device listed but my computer did not know if it was a monitor or a printer.

    There has to be someone out there that knows how to fix this

    Please Help

    Loosing second monitor by updating the graphic driver on win10-64bit

    Hi,

    Your concern regarding the undetected second display after updating the driver can be caused by an improper display configuration or a possible driver related issue. To isolate your concern, we'd like to ask the following:

    • Which Windows build version is running on your device? Type
      winver in the search box and press Enter to help you identify the build.
    • If your device is running on a later version, we suggest that you download and install the latest update by following the steps provided on this
      link. You can check the
      Windows 10 update history to see the list of the update.
    • What are the troubleshooting steps that you've performed to resolve your concern?

    To rule out any driver related issues, we suggest that you uninstall and delete the affected driver, then download and reinstall the latest driver from the manufacturer's site. To do this, follow the steps below:

    • Press the Windows + X key, then select
      Device Manager
      .
    • Locate and right-click the affected display adapter.
    • Select Properties.
    • Under the Driver tab, select Uninstall Device.

    • Check the box for Delete the driver software for this device.
    • Select Uninstall or OK to complete the change.
    • Once you're done, run the driver software to install it manually.
    • Restart the device if prompted, and then check if the display was setup properly. You can follow the steps on this
      Forum Article created by
      Andre Da Costa on how to add multiple monitors.

    In the event that the issue persists, repeat steps 1 to
    3
    , then select Roll Back Driver to revert to the previous version and isolate if concern is affected by an incompatible driver version.

    We'll appreciate if you can send us an update.
