• Unpredictable behavior with Dell Ultrasharp U2415 two monitors

  Since I created my two Dell U2415 monitor, I had sporadic problems with one or two of them are not recognized. I have a system Windows 10 T1700 Dell Precision with two monitors. This is the first time I've ever owned monitors that use Mini DisplayPort technology. The problems are:

  1. I would like to turn the monitor OFF the end of the day, because I don't like the brightness of the light emitted by the power buttons when not in service.  But it seems that turn off the monitors always brings problems when I return to the computer the next day. For example, if I turn off the monitors, the next time I turn everything back on, 1 single monitor is recognized. Sometimes, it's the one on the right, and sometimes it's the only one on the left. The other monitor has power, but no entry is recognized and it just says: "Entering Standby Mode" or something like that, and there is no display.  When this happens, there is no 2nd monitor when I go into the control panel display settings. It's as if the monitor is not plugged. I have to restart my PC again (this time, ensuring that both screens are turned on at the time where it restarts), who sometimes feel to come back on two monitors.

  2. on Monday, I'm alerted me to an update of the software Dell Display Manager, so I installed the update. At the end of the day, I've upgraded my PC sleep (leaving turned on monitor). When I came back in the morning, the PC wake acknowledging only 1 monitor. I had to go to the display settings for Windows 10 and extend to the 2nd monitor (why I am able to do it again)?

  Why are these things so delicate?  Is there a specific order in which everything must be turned off and turn it back on so that both monitors will be recognized correctly? Should I wait until my PC is off to turn off the monitors? I turn on the PC BEFORE monitors (or vice versa)? I have to turn on the primary monitor BEFORE the secondary monitor (or vice versa)? There seems to be some magic to all this and I would like to understand exactly what is happening. I want to be able to turn off monitors whenever I like and feel confident that the two be recognized when I've turn them back on. At this point, I'm leaving the power to monitor all the time because of the many problems I had and because I simply do not trust them.

  Thank you

  For the computer to identify a DP/CDM monitors, the monitors must be first, and then the computer graphic card reaches out to monitor DP/CDM opening handshake. Any changes to this order will disrupt the handshake. A computer hibernate or sleep modes tend to confuse the DP/CDM handshake. So I don't use them at all.

• Video card GeForce GTX645 and two monitors Dell

  Just place an order for a Dell XPS PC 8700 with a GeForce GTX645 video card. I'm trying to figure out how I'll be able to connect my two Dell monitors to the video card. My monitors are a Dell 2407WFP-HC 24 '' and a Dell IN2020M 20 ". I'm fairly certain that the 24 "monitor has a DVI - D connector, and I think (but I'm not sure) the 20" monitor also has DVI - D.

  It appears by looking at the specs for the GeForce GTX645 there a port DVI - D and DVI - I port. If this is the case, how can I connect two monitors using DVI - D video card?

  -Larry

  Yo is not an adapter to hook up 2 monitor DVI - D DVI - I and DVI - D + HDMI + [...] video card.

  DVI - I mean it is a compatible port DVI - D AND you could plug an adapter DVI / VGA for use an old monitor (VGA d - Sub 15 pin)

  DVI - I simply means that the DVI connector has some extra pins (on the right, under the direction, my mistake) with the data (if necessary)

• HPE HP8 1360t DVI connections and two monitors

  I recently bought a new HP8 HPE 1360t directly from HP.

  I finally got around to get set up last night. I like almost everything about it, EXCEPT to try to figure out how to make it work with two monitors.

  Before buying, I contacted HP sales to confirm that this model could support two monitors in extended mode, which means that Office spans both monitors, giving me two times the workspace.

  I have two monitors (1908FP) Dell that I got as part of a severance package from my last job (Yes, I know what you think) and down them as two monitors with the office in extended mode. They have both connected via DVI to a MOLEX splitter. They seem to be of DVI - D Single Link.

  At the back of my new computer, there are three DVI ports:

  -one on its own and it is DVI - I Dual Link (photo below)

  -both grouped together and on the side. one looks like DVI - I Dual Link and the other DVI - D Dual Link

  When you configure the workstation I naturally just assumed to connect all the cables DVI mail of my monitors for each of the two DVI ports on the side. Nothing happened.

  I removed then each of them to test it on its own. Still nothing.

  Then I plugged into the port at the top, and it worked. But it has only a single port.

  So I went back and tried the other in each of the two and went to the panel display and but it does not recognize the second monitor.

  At this point I don't know what to do. They told me this computer supports two monitors, but I don't see how it's done if neither of the DVI low ports to work.

  Is there anything else I should do? Or have I not those who simply do not work?

  I am running Windows 7 family Premium 64-bit (Service Pack 1), Direct X 11, and the graphics card is GeForce GT 630.

  If it means anything NVIDIA control panel says my card and monitor are HDCP and it does not find the second monitor when I use setting up the functionality of multiple screens.

  I would be very happy for any help and advice.

  Thank you.

  This model uses a card mother IPMMB-FM (Formosa). The built-in rear I/O below;

  

  (5) - DVI - I (digital and analog output) and DVI - D (digital only)

  When the computer is equipped with a dedicated graphics installed in slot PCIe x 16 card, this motherboard integrated DVI outputs are disabled. The only connections that you can use are those on GT630 discrete graphic card. This card must have at least a DVI and an HDMI output. Please post a photo of the back of your computer, centered on the graphics card. You may need to use a HDMI-DVI adapter to connect the second monitor.

• Dell Precision M6600 - two monitors

  I have a laptop Dell Precision M6600.  I would like to connect up to two external monitors and do not use the laptop monitor (so the lid will be closed).  There is only a single VBA port at the back, so I can't connect two monitors to it directly.

  I did research on the internet and find that it looks like this can be done by using a Port Replicator, but it seems that those who run more than $200, and I think I would have a hard time getting my company to approve that.  Is it possible that this can be done using a kind of dispatcher (VBA-> 2 x VGA Splitter, or using the HDMI port)?

  I found some discussions about it on the internet, but some speak only to duplicate the single to multiple monitors output, which is not what I want.  Many of these items were laptop specific, so I don't know how that would apply to my specific model.  So I thought that the best place to ask would be the Dell support site.

  Thank you

  Hi JoeLBS,

  Thanks for your question. DisplayPort is another standard to connect screens. Here's more about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DisplayPort

  A DisplayPort to VGA adapter will work for you that should a HDMI to VGA. Here is an example:

  Would be happy to hear from you on the result of your choice.

• Portege Z30 16 GB with high speed Port Replicator III and two monitors - resolution

  I have a Portege Z30 with 16 GB of Ram, connected to a Toshiba high speed Port Replicator III which is connected to two monitors running in mode extended.

  The monitor attached to the first section of the video is 1920 x 1200 running.
  However the second monitor is only show support for a maximum of 1280 x 1084.

  The monitors are identical, and both are connected by DisplayPort cables.

  I tried to lower the resolution and save the settings on the first monitor to see if it offered options on the second monitor, but the options remained the same.

  At this point, I have narrowed down to 1280 x 1024 so that it conforms to all the monitors but would like to a plus-res solution.

  Does anyone know if there is a fix/work-around for this?
  If this is a hardware limitation, has anyone tried a USB 3 to DisplayPort adapter in a similar configuration?

  Thank you!

  At the same time using two displayports?
  I wonder how it is possible, because of my knowledge it is not possible... as far as I know the Port Replicator III supports two DisplayPorts but you could choose and use one of them...

  In any case, you can use both with a lower resolution, I guess that this problem can be caused due to incompatible display drivers.
  I suggest you to uninstall reinstall or update the display drivers and check if it helps

• The top of the window disappeared. Cannot minimize and two monitors no longer work

  Hello! It's really stupid, but from what I understand, I must have pressed a shortcut to something because now the top of my window disappeared (you know, the part "minimize", "maximize" and "Close" buttons). I found an explanation in the face of the same problem with illustrator, and the guy has resolved:

  "In the Illustrator menu bar, click"Window", then"framework of Application". It seems that the unchecked option will leave the application 'attached' to your primary monitor. Audit, he will place the application in a window of 'free form' that you are free to move. »

  This article describes my problem and and provides a solution, but I can't seem to find the setting of "application framework" in first CC. Help, please! Strange how dual monitors no longer work, despite their work earlier today, so I assumed that my window is maximized touched it. Don't know what shortcut, I pressed. I tried to reset the workspace.

  Thank you!

  ALT + space, then "maximize" worked. Seen that option earlier, but only tried the option reduce...

• Two monitors: I need a 2nd taskbar

  I have Windows XP and two monitors.  We have forgotten how to get the 2nd taskbar on the 2nd monitor.  I tried dragging it above, but anything that succeeds in making moves my main taskbar of my primary monitor.

  I appreciate and help!

  You can move your quick launch on the desktop by dragging it to the top, then on the other monitor, or you can try Ultramon or Multimon or something like that. I haven't used one of these.

  Depending on the graphics card may also have something built.

  Windows xp has nothing built natively in that I am aware of.

• Latitude E7450 processor and controller, E - 2, unstable configuration port of the U2715H - two monitors-

  I have two monitors U2715H connected via a CDM-> DP cable each to a docking station E-Port Plus (in fact an Advanced Port Replicator EURO2) in which sits a laptop Latitude E7450 processor and controller. All items are brand new. E7450 processor and controller is equipped with 16 GB of RAM and two graphics cards: Intel HD 5500 Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce 840 M; selection is automatic, which usually means that the 5500 is running. It runs Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 (64-bit). The docking station has apparently DP 1.2 a capacity (for chaining) but DP 1.2 is disabled in both monitors.

  I have correctly configured the system to have Windows desktop space both monitors at 2560 x 1440 resolution, even with screen internal latitude as a third request for an extension to its full resolution (1920 x 1080). The main screen can be set to one of the two (or three) and I can successfully move the sequence of monitors around (left, middle, right).

  There is therefore no doubt about the ability of the system to support the planned configuration. However, when I dock the Latitude (most with the lid closed) and start, most of the time he is unable to restore the configuration of the two external monitors. Some of the symptoms are: one or two monitors go black, indicating the cable connected but no signal from the docking station. If there is a picture on one of the monitors at startup, it may or may not contain the login screen. (I can still log in because I know which keystrokes to send.) If the login screen is visible, it is usually in low resolution. If I have several active screens, but one is black, I can move the mouse pointer (or an entire window) on the screen black (in the middle or on the side), but it is not visible here.

  Both monitors come right out of the box and the only change I made is to move from the DP to the mDP as input channel. I reinstalled the cables and exchanged the cables between the two DPs on the docking station. I turned the market monitors. I ran the self-test the requirements on both monitors. The connection of the laptop on the docking station is a little wobbly, but I use the spacer provided for the E7450 processor and controller and making sure the connection is correct and stable. I've updated all the drivers and BIOS of processors E7450 and controller. I recently saw a reference to a BIOS for the docking station; I didn't know it existed, but I'm not.

  The installation instructions provided with the monitors were a note on consulting the CD provided for the use of the screen to maximum resolution. E7450 processor and controller is not an optical drive, but I read all of the documentation for the monitor to Support technical without finding what whatsoever to shed light on the situation (in addition to ensure that the graphics card and drivers are up to the task).

  Once I connected, I can manage to make it all in order by randomly (?) lower the resolution of the screen, change the position of the main screen (left-center-right), deselection reselection CDM as entry way and forcing other changes. Once the two or all three screens in operation, I can put them all to maximum resolution and beginning of work. However, it is rather annoying and I would like to have a stable configuration.

  The configuration seems to survive power cycling of the laptop / station but not if I also disconnect the laptop. I should mention that when I detach the E7450 processor and controller, I can use it in other configurations, with or without other external monitors through other ports, before turning it off and later re - anchor as described. However, for the first month I had two old non-moniteurs Dell of any resolution (on DVI and VGA ports) connected to the docking station and the configuration is stable, and for years I used for my older Latitude with a docking station that is older, remembering his device between different hardware configurations.

  Please, someone - and Dell support staff in particular?

• Can I use a Dell P2714H HD and a monitor Dell P2715Q together on my new macpro?

  I want to use a P2714H Dell HD and a Dell P2715Q monitor k 4 together on my new Mac Pro.

  This is so that I can see the differences between the two.

  I would like to know first if they can work together, and second, what are the pitfalls involved?

  If someone has encountered this, I would really like to know.

  I use Yosemite with the latest operating system.

  They work very well when the two connected tot a 2103 end Mac Pro.

  For the 4K monitor simply use a spirit cable mini displayport on each end and connect it to a port Thunderbolt

  For the other monitor to get a cable with a mini displayport on one end and displayport on the other end. This monitor has a displayport input so use it.

  Connect each monitor to another bus Thunderbolt

  

• Dell XPS 8500 with 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7570 - how to connect two monitors or?

  Hi, I got my Dell XPS 8500 today with the 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7570.

  Before buying the office, I read online that the AMD Radeon HD 7570 supports Eyefinity.   Eyefinity is supposed to be capable of supporting 4 monitors using the HD 7570 map by the description here: http://www.amd.com/us/products/desktop/graphics/7000/7570/Pages/radeon-7570.aspx#2

  When you look at the photos of the Dell XPS 8500 online I thought that Eyefinity support was to use a display in addition to the DVI port Port.   Specifically, I thought that a monitor has been supported by DVI monitors while 4 thru two supported using an active connection to the view port using a product like the DisplayPort Accell UltraAV K087B-005 / 3 x multi-monitor DVI - D single-link adapter.

  To my surprise the graphics card came with an HDMI port, not a display port and I believe that HDMI port is a connection from one to the other, and not one of many display connection.   Maybe someone can correct me if I am wrong on this point.   But if I'm not wrong then, this would imply that, at most, the Dell XPS 8500 with the AMD Radeon HD card 7570 can support up to only 2 monitors (one DVI port) and the other HDMI port instead of 4 monitors as described on the above link.

  Others would agree with this statement?

  Note that the Dell XPS 8500 also has a VGA connector on it but I tested it using a monitor on VGA and a monitor on the DVI connection and the computer that reported as an invalid monitor config.   Probably because the VGA and DVI connections are originally the same video display as connect two monitors to display even has no logical sense.

  I have not tested the HDMI port for the second monitor again mainly because I don't have a spare HDMI cable on site at the present time.   I'll probably buy one tomorrow unless I see the comments of my post, specifying that a second monitor can be moved through the HDMI port on the AMD Radeon HD 7570 map...   I'd be surprised if that were the case (1 monitor system would be quite restrictive), but it is difficult to say with certainty, because the VGA and DVI connections at the same time have been marked by the computer as an invalid configuration...

  Any thoughts on the different ways to configure multiple monitors with the XPS 8500 and the 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7500 is appreciated.

  Thank you.

  If the card is not a display port is not an eyefinity card and cannot stand 3 monitors... it will be 2 monitors, no problem... I couldn't find anywhere on the site of Dell, where he says that the card was eyefinity... If you want 3 assumption of monitors you can buy a video card that supports.
