How to add a second monitor to my HP - Pavilion 500

I am trying to add a second monitor to my desktop HP Pavilion 500 (model No. 500-189) and met with many problems. At the back of my PC there is a video output that comes with several adapters, but under a plastic cover, there is an another VGA port I have my second monitor plugged into. When I restart the computer, the loading screen appears on the screen to spare, but the lock screen then appears on the primary monitor. I went to the screen resolution setting page and discovered that the computer has not detected the second monitor at all, I pressed on detect a couple of times and he couldn't find it. If anyone knows why this is happening and how to fix it please let me know. Moreover, the second monitor I'm trying to connect to is a LG Flatron and the main monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster.

If anyone needs my computer guru please meet demand and I'd be happy to let you know.

Thank you!

  • Can I add a second monitor?

    I'm used to 2 monitors, and I want to keep it this way.  I hung on a samsung monitor I have via HDMI to my Sprout.  It works, except that I can't seem to operate as one extension of the other.  I have set them up as an extension, but this is only to show the same as the monitor Sprout. All duplicates. I'm doing something wrong?  Sprout supports another monitor?

    Yes, you can add a second monitor.

    Right now, the only way to get it to work is to disable the Service to germinate, and then the 'third' monitor can be used as a large monitor. But it's the only way to expand at this time. I couldn't find a document about this, but here are the steps. And don't forget, all the germs associated options will be disabled, all 3 monitors at disposal for any windows application.

    Start the Task Manager (right click on the taskbar and select Task Manager)

    under the gaze of process for the germination process

    Stop it.

    now, your monitor can be extended.

    For starters, he do the same only backwards...

  • Failed to add a second monitor on some computers to model because of driver VGASAVE

    Currently, using Mirage 5.1.11204. We have desktop computers and laptops Dell and HP. I have a business created for image Windows 7 Enterprise x 64.

    Corp image was created on a HP ProBook 640 G1. I use this for our standard image. It works on all our models. I have a question on a couple of the Dell models where I can't add a second monitor. It seems that the correct video driver is installed in Device ManagerDevice Manager.png

    , but if you go into the display properties and select Advanced, all card information is displayed so that isn't available or n/a.

    Display Properties.png

    If you check the properties of the adapter, it shows VGASAVE.

    Adapter Properties.png

    I tried everything, reinstall the drivers using the driver library, by not applying is not the library of drivers without result. If I take a vanilla Windows 7 x 64 using the Windows Deployment Services image fine. If its something in the base image Mirage I guess.

    This occurs in particular on our laptop Dell Latitude E6400 and our Dell Optiplex 780.  I don't want to create separate images for these two models, especially since they retired in the new year.

    Thanks in advance

    Thus, it seems that I solved the problem. I went back to my machine to reference that I created my main image on and uninstalled the video drivers of 2 HP, and set the backup as Standard VGA adapters. I took the picture and it made for a Dell Latitude E6400. It is a machine that I could not install an external monitor in and it worked like a charm.

    I shouldn't of remove these video drivers Mirage is supposed to do it himself, but the bottom line is that his work once again without having to create a separate image. I hope this helps someone else who falls on this issue.

  • I want to add a second hard drive for my Pavilion Elite HPE 410f. Recommendations?

    Hello

    How fast is fast is the real question.

    Have you looked at hybrid drives OCZ? Expensive but probably the fastest option.

    Seagate also made a hybrid hard drive.  Good price... You will need a 3.5 "to 2.5" support if the player does not support.  If you install the drive in an empty optical Bay then you will need a 5.25 "to 2.5" support.

    Your other choice is 7 200 or 10 000 rpm traditional hard drives.

    Another option would be to add a PCI sata and two external hard dirves configured in RAID 0.

  • How to add a second e-mail from an address of bigpond account in Thunderbird?

    I scoured my Mozilla Thunderbird's emails. My first email address ending by... bigpond.com and my second e-mail account is a bigpond address too. How can I add a second e-mail from an address of bigpond account in Thunderbird? No easy solution?

    My guess based on the error message would be that they don't offer POP e-mail, and you must have created the new account as IMAP.

    When you look at the original, working the account server settings indicate IMAP?

    If Yes to delete the new account a recreate using IMAP instead of pop.

  • Qosmio F20: How to add a second HDD

    Hi all, my first post, so be nice!

    I recently bought a new Qosmio F20 with unique 60 gig HD. I realize now after a month, I need much more space, it will add a second 120 GIG HD. My question is, is this easy to do? How can I do? Is there a couple of screws to undo and just pop in? Also is there a certain type of HD necessary?

    Sorry for the questions of basic but this is my first laptop.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    As far as I know that it is not possible to use two hard disks on F notebook series as on G series, delivered with two hard drives. In my opinion that the best solution is to use external USB connected HDD. On this way, you can use notebook HARD drive 2.5 in aluminum case.

    Google a bit and you will find many of them with a different ability. I use a 60 GB external HDD back up all my data.

  • Add a second monitor

    I have a HP G5370uk computor. The current monitor is connected via a VGA cable. I have a second monitor that has a similar equipped VGA cable.  (Blue connector with 3 rows of five pins.)

    The only other port my computor is a dual link DVI A. (3 rows of 8 holes with a flat pinhole individually at one end).

    I am able to connect the second monitor and extend my desktop and if so, how?

    Please keep any simple explanation as I am a very simple person.

  • How to add a second IP address to the external network

    I have two NETWORK cards that I use for virtual machines (an internal and an external), and virtual switches have been created for each of them. My ESX Server already has an internal IP address, how do I add a second external IP address without deleting the first? I try to create a new switch, but the menu of default gateway DNS pointing to the first switch, and I don't want to remove this info.

    Network interface cards for the use of Virtual Machines require no IP addresses, they relay the traffic using the IP address found in the virtual machine. You try to add an additional service console to be accessible through this external connection? Announcement may be a print screen of your configuration might help to understand what you do and what you hope to accomplish.

  • Pavilion all-in-one 23: Add the second monitor to HP Pavilion CTO all-in-One-23-p110z

    As it is configured, the factory is the "HP Pavilion all-in-one-23-p110z CTO" capable of supporting a second monitor?  I see NO obvious "video inputs" ports.

    Thank you!

    Hi @beckinista,

    Thank you for being an active member of the HP's Support Forums.   I understand that you would like to know if you can connect a second computer monitor 23-p110z all-in-One CTO Pavilion.

    The specifications of the motherboard of your computer show that there not a secondary display port. I have included HP Pavilion 23 - p110z all-in-one CTO Office product specifications and configurable Options and HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - specifications of the motherboard, Boa for your reference.

    I hope the above helps.

  • IQ846 - can I add a second monitor?

    I hope that some of you out there may be able to offer a suggestion as to whether or not it is possible to add a second screen to my IQ846 who is still using Vista x 64. Since there is no port output additional display on this machine, I expect it would change the video card - if that's even possible. So in fact, it's really my question: first of all, is easily removable video card (requires no welding); and secondly, does anyone know of a replacement card that would support the addition of a second screen?

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP TouchSmart IQ846. This model contains no video outputs external of any kind (VGA, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, etc.). Change the MXM PCIe x 16 video card will be difficult, expensive, may not work and still not provide an external video output. To connect an additional screen consider using an adapter USB-to-video, like the eVGA UV plus + UV39 or one of the other many adapter on the market.
