  1. Windows Duplicate Display Stopped Working Randomly


    I have a 3-display setup, 2 Monitors and 1 TV. I have a main monitor that is 240 hz 1440p OLED, a 2nd monitor that is a 144 hz 1080 LED, and then a 60hz 4k TV. So, kind of all over the place. The thing is that my setup was working just fine until one day it literally just came crashing down. I have the 2 monitors set to extend and the TV set to duplicate my main monitor, so I can play games from my bed on the TV with a controller if I want, and so my partner can watch as I play.THE EXACT ISSUE:When I select "duplicate desktop on" for my main monitor and the TV it flashes for a second, duplicat

    audio randomly stops working

    Hello all,

    My computer is currently connected to my Vizio E420-A0 TV (HDMI). My audio randomly stops working and the display audio device disappears. When it works I can see it in device manager:

    And when it stops working it disappears:

    The driver seems to be up to date:

    Disconnecting and reconnecting the cable doesn't help or turning the TV off and on, but rebooting fixes it. Any ideas?

    How to stop automatic duplicate/extend displays


    Hello all! I'm using my Windows 10 laptop with a secondary external monitor which i want to use as a display, without the laptop's built-in display. The problem is, despite i set to show the image only on the secondary (external) monitor, after each restart or after i close the laptop's lid, it reverts to duplicating the image (or extends it, if select extend inside of duplicate). How can i stop this?? I have to manually reselect to show the image on the 2nd display only. Thanks!
