• 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!

• 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.

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

• multiple monitors - several desktop computers do not work

  My computer continues to change the provision of workstations, monitors and funds from time to time. I have three monitors with different characteristics (a 4 K, two 1920 x 1200, attached to a MacPro (a mini DP, a HDMI and VGA adapter).) Whenever the machine goes to sleep (I never managed to find out when this is the case) it takes longer to wake up that the start-up of the machine and monitors keep switching wildly. The end result is order, that I had arranged for most of the day. But sometimes the office images disappear, sometimes they switch to a different view, sometimes one of them is doubled.

  Is there a way to get rid of this nonsense? (My Office photos Dungeon change for a while and it started well before MacPro was invented).

  "What Windows are on which screens" changes when the screens are not available. The reasoning is, if a view is not available, its windows are moved (usually at the main display) so that at least part of every open window is displayed on this screen to work, so that it can be manipulated, and the window is not "lost". (I haven't looked in the bottom of the screen how you treat.)

  From your description, I conclude that at some point, your Mac has decided that some screens are "unavailable". It is a problem almost no resolved with poster several high-tech on the Mac Pro entries.

  To display an image on a Mac, a screen should respond to a request of the Mac, "what is your name and what are your abilities?

  This request is sent:

  • shortly after switching on

  • When inserting the Mac end of the display cable

  • on the invocation of the Option-(detect screens) in the display panel

  • the waking from sleep

  especially on high technology multiple input displays, the screen may not be "considering" the channel of secondary data for the port attached to the Macintosh, especially if its default value is not wearing his computer, or in the case of evil where:

  (a) the display is in sleep and

  (b) display is not designed to wake up until it gets a signal to an appropriate resolution display...

  ... (which will never happen unless it responds to the request of the Mac)

  --------

  You should be sure the internal parameters (fixed on the screen, not on Mac) for each display are set to focus on the 'port' the computer connection on all others.

  As often happens around sleep Mac, many users responded by not having not not their sleep poster, not having don't not sleep Mac, or both.

• Cannot set a primary monitor with 2 monitors

  OK, here's the situation. I have two monitors, a 22 "widesceen LED and a 32" LCD screen, I have the smallest monitor connected via DVI and the cotyledon connected via HDMI. Whenever I plug the big one HDMI, he succeeded to the main screen and does not allow me to make the smaller monitor the primary monitor. This is because the primary monitor option is grayed out and I can't check it. So far, I am aware of the vista updates and also up-to-date with the graphics drivers. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hi Venom,

  Method 1

  I suggest you to check if the value for both monitors screen resolution are the same. You can try to set the same for both monitors screen resolution and check if it works very well. Access the link below and follow the steps to change the screen resolution.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/change-your-screen-resolution

  Also access the link below to learn more about the use of multiple monitors.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/work-and-play-better-with-multiple-monitors

  Method 2

  If the steps above do not help, you may contact the manufacturer of the computer and check with the BIOS to display settings and adjust it accordingly.

  NOTE: Changing the BIOS / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from configuration can resolved BIOS/CMOS settings. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

  Thank you and best regards,

• Desktop HP Pavilion 550-A17C: two monitors with desktop HP Pavilion 550-A17C? (Graphics, AMD Radeon R5)

  Hello. My computer is a HP Pavilion Desktop 550 - A17C with AMD Radeon R5 (integrated) graphics card. Can he take charge of two monitors? I did everything I can think of, including searching the Internet for a number of hours for solutions. For the life of me I can't get the computer to detect the second monitor, when I have two connected monitors.

  I connect the main monitor with a VGA cable and the second with a DVI cable. The computer only has a VGA connector and a DVI connector. There is no HDMI port (serioulsly and I bought this computer as three months previously, as a refurb...) (Lol).

  What I want to do, is extend the display. My hardware is unable to conduct two screens? A USB video adapter solve the problem?

• The ipad pro supports multiple monitors with different content on each screen?

  I want to replace my laptop with an ipad pro.  Currently I drive three screens with my laptop, all with different content (VGA, HDMI, laptop screen) with no additional adapters.  The Ipad pro has a video card that will allow me to run multiple monitors (3 including the pro) with different content on each monitor?

  Given that the pro iPad running iOS and iOS do not supports multiple monitors, I would say no. I may be wrong, so feel free to correct me.

• How to set the width of layout desktop screen in fluidlayout?

  For the flow layout of RWD, Web site design page I have is 960px wide. While working on DW CC, the width of sizes of support are:

  Mobile: width: 86,45%;

  Shelf width: 90.675%;

  Desktop width: 960px;

  When I set a percentage for desktop (for 960px), 68.6% (which is less mobile and the width of the Tablet), the browser displays more width 960px. Use a screen resolution of 1680X1050px.

  Now how to set the size of layout as 960px for desktop, in percentage?

  
  

  Or should I keep it as 960px for office and percentage for mobile and Tablet?

  68.6% of 1680px equals 1152px, then Yes, he is bigger than 960px

  If you want to stop at the 960px available, then set max-width: 960px to the container as well as width: 68.6%.
