  • How to set up two monitors on Lenovo T420 with docking station.

    I have a T420 on a docking station (cradle ThinkPad series 3, #4333710U)- and two monitors (each aprox 24 ").  I tried several variations using the NVIDIA display as well as the native Windows Display Manager (7) and am unable to render images on the two external displays.  Can someone please help?

    Hi John,.

    Thanks for posting your question on the Forum of the Microsoft community.

    I would be grateful if you can provide us with the following information to determine the root cause of the problem.

    1. Did you do last changes made on your computer before this problem?

    2. Have you tried to monitor primary as secondary and vice versa?

    3. All device drivers are updated?

    After reading your post, I understand that you want to use two monitors with extended view, then you can try the steps in the following Microsoft article and see if it helps.

    Move windows between multiple monitors

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/move-Windows-between-multiple-monitors#1TC=Windows-7

    If the problem persists, then pass to the below mentioned method and see if it helps.

    Method 1

    If you haven't tried Exchange monitors so I suggest you to try and see if the problem still occurs.

    To change the settings of two monitors you can consult the links below:

    Note: This link is also applicable for Windows 7 .

    Method 2

    If the problem persists I suggest you to update the display drivers. As the display drivers for two monitors are not the same, so try to update and check the status.

  • 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?

    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!

  • Satellite 4100XCDT: how to set up the monitor

    Hello
    I recently bought a Satellite 4100XCDT, he had no operating system, so I installed Windows 98 Second edition on it. I installed the audio driver and the graphics driver and they work fine, but I can't configure the monitor. Whenever I start it detects TWO monitors plug-and-play for some reason any. I can't see a driver on the Toshiba site and don't know what to do. I tried setting up as a Billboard Mobile, but failed.

    I hope someone can help,
    Thank you.

    Hello

    On the download from Toshiba site there is display driver for Win98SE (version 6.45.5441 - 58.22). Try to use it.

  • How to set programmatically a LabVIEW exe * Windows * priority?

    I have an executable of LabVIEW that makes data acquisition to 10 kHz on an ongoing basis and under certain conditions of dumps of these data to a CSV file that is viewable in Excel.  We noticed if the file becomes unusually large and someone tries to open this file so that DAQ'ing is always in course (but does not connect), Excel will monopolize the CPU long enough such that the exe of LabVIEW does not have enough time CPU to extract data from data acquisition until the data in its circular buffer gets replaced.  I could try to simply increase the size of the buffer DAQ, but really, the solution is to have this executable LabVIEW have "priority" over other executables non-LabVIEW (such as Excel.)    Looking at properties VI--> execution--> set the priority seems to only define the priority between other threads LabVIEW but says nothing about how a thread LabVIEW is prioritized to another non-LabVIEW exe.   I have confirmed this by setting the LabVIEW execution property to 'critical moment' and then in the Task Manager and windows reports still his priority as "normal".   How can I set the * Windows * priority of an executable of LabVIEW without having to do it manually via the Task Manager?

    Thank you

    Ninja Edit:

    I should mention that I am building the executable is nothing else than a "master GUI" which generates four LabVIEW modules in sub-panels using static VI refs and displays important data from these four modules persistent "dashboard".   Modules to do all the boring tasks such as DAQ'ing and display data in charts.  Because I am compiling my code in a single executable using the GUI 'master' as the boot VI, set the priority in properties of VI flow down to the modules I load in sub-panels or will only the priority of the Master GUI be changed?  On a related note, should I set four enforcement system 'Data acquisition' modules, then the master GUI to ' User Interface?

    You can try calling the next VI. It sets the priority for the current process and has worked for me in the past on XP.
