• How to set up two monitors with screen LCD and HDTV on computer that is running Windows 7

  Issues of identity and position monitor

  I use a LCD and an HD TV on my computer. I have HDTV mounted to my left on the wall in my room and the LCD is on my desk in front of me. I have my monitor set as my main screen and HDTV as secondary. Windows identifies the HDTV as monitor 1 and my screen LCD 2. After starting the computer they work very well as they should. My problem is during the boot process. When the computer starts, it displays only the boot screen/POST on monitor 1 (HDTV) but not my main screen #2 (LCD). This is a problem when I don't have my HDTV now, I don't see the MESSAGE options. I don't want to always have my HDTV and crane my neck every time I need to change the BIOS settings or use the MESSAGE options. Is there any solution for this?

  DCLCD 19 "VGA monitor

  VIZIO HDTV 32 '' (hdmi) "

  Hi Darth Polizei,

  I hope that's not redundant but did you try to set your monitor 19 "as the main display?

  1. In the screen resolution window, you click the icon of the monitor that represents the secondary monitor.
  2. You click to select the "Make my main screen" check box, and then click OK.
  3. You log out of the computer.
  4. You log on to the computer.

  Please let us know.

  Thank you!

  Right-click on an empty spot on the desktop and choose "Customize".
  Click "View," then "change display settings." You will see images
  your two monitors here. Drag one of them (whatever one you have
  on top) on top of the other, and then click 'OK '.

• Two monitors does not

  I've set up two monitors on my laptop.  I went to the settings and changed its expansion just as they said in the help section.  It is said that I should now be able to drag a window to the other monitor.  BUT, everytime I try, it puts just this window on that side of my screen.  It goes to the other monitor.  My other monitor is just my wallpaper showing and nothing else.  How can I change this?

  Hello

  These should contribute. You can set the monitors to work as a single office (can drag and drop across
  also the programs cannot be fullscreen - reduce the size) or they can be set to work as
  two separate monitors where you open the programs you want on each.

  ==================================

  You may need to update your display and video driver

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
  each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
  version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
  video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
  cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
  own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
  (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
  updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
  because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
  pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
  This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
  questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
  manually if you wish.

• 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)

• How to extend the display of two monitors

  Original title: disorders bi-ecrans

  I tried to set up a second monitor to my computer. I don't have that one port, so used a double adapter cable to connect the second monitor. The computer will be in the image of the first monitor on the second, but when I go to settings to change them (I like the screen to cover the monitor2 mirror not) seems not even the second monitor is there even if it is on and working.

  Please can someone help me

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  You can connect just as an external monitor to the computer without any additional device.
  I connected my external monitor to the laptop and activated the option called: extend my Windows desktop on this monitor.

  This allows to use the external monitor as extended desktop and I can still move my documents or windows browser to the external monitor.

  If you want to use two external monitors then I advise to use a device such as Toshiba Dynadock.

  Google for more details on different devices Dynadock mode

• How can I get two jobs when using two monitors, instead of stretching a desktop on both screens?

  Hello!

  How can I get two jobs when using two monitors, instead of stretching a desktop on both screens? I n ' want to clone my office, and I don't want to stretch it. I want two desktop computers, where I can "send/give" to the other desktop programs.

  I need a third party program? It is very good. If you know one please tell me about it.

  Hi OskarKvist,

  This feature is not supported by Windows XP.

  However, you can use your favorite search engine to download any third-party software that could serve the purpose.

  Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  Hope the helps of information.
