Video/graphics card in the laptop is able to support the native resolution of the screen?  Consult the manuals (or to the manufacturer support web sites) of the two.

  • When I disconnect the monitor Samsung, laptop monitor loses the office.

    I use a laptop Toshiba Satellite L645-S4102.  I have been using an external Samsung monitor for a while.  I need to use the laptop for a presentation only.

    I can change to the screen of the laptop or use the Samsung monitor and the laptop monitor as long as my computer is connected to the Samsung monitor.

    But, when I disconnect the monitor Samsung, laptop monitor loses the shortcuts on the desktop and the taskbar and shows only the background.  I tried to restart the computer, but the same thing happens.  As soon as I reconnect the Samsung screen, everything happens very well again.  Ideas please.

    Start with the extra monitor connected and used.  Then go to your desktop and follow the instructions below:

    1. Click background, choose the resolution of the screen.
    2. In the graph at the top, click on your laptop screen (if you don't know who is who, click "Identify" and click the monitor displays on the screen of the laptop).
    3. Check the box "use as primary monitor" and then apply the change.

    The bar of tasks and other items still show on the main monitor, so this will ensure that your laptop screen is considered to be the main.

    If necessary (unlikely but it could happen), repeat these 3 steps again when the additional monitor is disconnected.

  • Two monitor attached by DVI, only working

    Hi, I recently installed a NVIDIA 8400 GS video card and attached a second monitor that I use the card DVI port. I am running Win 7. Now the monitor which was attached to the motherboard DVI port does not work. I suspect that the disabled card video motherboard drivers? I tried to use Windows Control Panel and NVIDIA Control Panel, but no other monitor is detected. Does anyone know how to get two monitors work? Thank you!!

    Even more important is it that a single graphics card, if Windows does not detect the graphics card on the motherboard, it does not detect a monitor attached to it.

    Check that your motherboard has the latest version of the BIOS and that you have the latest chipset drivers, although I would not hold much hope.

    Your only other option will be a card with Dual DVI or HDMI and DVI output.

  • Second monitor resolution problems

    I have a Toshiba laptop (Windows Vista) and use my Samsung TV as a second monitor to play DVDs, iPlayer, etc.. Until recently it went well - when I connected the cable to my laptop, the laptop screen went black and the image appeared on television in the correct resolution. Recently, without apparent reason, when I connected to the TV, the resolution goes haywire. I've been playing with customization under display settings, but the right mode for television (1360 x 768) is no longer available. How can it be, when it used to be in the corresponding mode? I can't work out what to do to solve the problem. Help!

    Follow my previous answer from this line:

    "Resolution if your laptop 1280 x 800 and your TV's native resolution 1360 x 768, the system then controls resolution that both can function normally it is 1024 x 768, maybe it's what you see on your TV." You must set their resolutions of 1024 x 768, or only the laptop monitor would come ON. »

    Maybe the Fn + F5 didn't work because they are defined in different resolutions. You must set their resolution to 1024 x 768.

  • How to usb + (kb + mouse) AUTO ACTIVATE when the computer reboots, lid closed, monitor attached?

    Can someone help me get this automated. I have a screen on my laptop, attached to the videoadapter. And a keyboard without wire-mouseset tied to a stick into the usb port. My laptop screendriver is defined to be monitored as one and only screen. So far so good. When I put my laptop asleep I can easily start with the wless-Ko by a movement of the mouse or any key. But I have to unrafle the laptop under my monitor when he meets a reboot, by countless updates automated Microsoft systemware or virusdata or, more often, my fault: loss of network.

  • Dual monitor boot problem with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit after installation of any graphics program like a game.

    I have built this platform with the help of the owner of a store of 4 cumputer teir 2 years ago. We initially put Windows Vista 32 bit on the system to Vista 64 bit unstable atm. For 2 years, the computer worked like a dream. Last week I made a clean wipe of windows vista and windows 7 professional 64-bit installed. The system has two monitors. The primary monitor is a sony bravia with 26 "led and secondary for watching movies is that a 55 '' led Samsung 1080 p 240 Hz. The graphics card is a geforce GTX 295 nividia. It has 12 GB of Ram and the CPU is an i7 965 @3.20.

    The problem I have is this. After the installation of any game average to work with windows 7, the screens to reset their resolutions automatically more than a few times as they are confused. Sometimes, I have to return the screen to its correct resolution after installation in full. Most of the games and then run fine. After installing the game or any game designed for win 7 startup of computers is all messed up for the monitors. After starting hand 26 "sets its resolution and then after about a second 30 pause the computer makes the sound (the double) that it is resolutuons to reset monitor again? After that this second reset about 1-2 minutes the computer is good to go, unless it sets the res evil. The problem is the computer has never done that with vista and it is very annoying say the least. It still freezes the installation of some games. The only way to resolve what I found is the restoration of the system. The computer starts normally and screen ground is defined once she has always been. The only problem is when you install another game, the problem is their new. This problem is worse in some games.

    The latest nvidia drivers have been installed. There is no conflict in the device with the exception of an old printer Manager. The two comes is set to 60 hertz. I searched all over the internet and there seems to be a problem with windows 7 without solution. I am at a loss. Any other information that you need let me know and I'll post it. Thank you!

    Hi ancientone618,

    It sounds almost as if there is a Windows update that is in conflict with your NVIDIA Driver Installer.  I would say to disable automatic updates of Windows to see if it might help:

  • Dell U2715H as second monitor sleep problem

    I just bought a Dell U2715H monitor to connect to my iMac 27 "mid-2010.

    Implementation, the system works beautifully. Plug n play, as we are accustomed to the Apple universe.

    But after an automatic start, this morning, the Dell remained black, what I tried.

    A phone call with the helpdesk Dell did not bring a solution; they are willing to trade for a new monitor, but I think not (just a feeling) which will tackle the problem.

    After having a cup of coffee, I came back to my Mac, who had fallen asleep in the meantime.

    Pressing a button all of life, including (surprise) the Dell monitor system.

    After a few experiences, I discovered that after a reboot, the Dell remains black.

    Put the system to sleep (using a hot corner) and pressing a key is not wake up the Dell.

    Bringing the system to sleep and pressing a button after waiting 10-20 seconds, puts the entire system, including the Dell monitor.

    The monitor is connected to a mid 2010 iMac 27 "2.93 GHz Intel Core i7, with a miniDP to DP cable.

    Although I found this 'solution' after hours of frustrating attempts, it feels a bit inadequate.

    Anyone who is familiar with this problem who found a more definitive solution?

  • 2207 monitor: HP: w2207h monitor startup problem

    My HP monitor only has not been commissioning correctly several months now. When it appeared everything first, the monitor has refused to start when the power button has been pressed. I noticed a noise "rattling or burst" and could see that the blue power light was bike works at short intervals. After some time the monitor came; However, as the time (weeks) traveled by the monitor continued to click and not to open the splash screen. When it happened I pressed the button of keyboard sleep and distributed, and for some reason, the monitor eventually would come on.

    The monitor is not connected to a TV, it is only connected to the computer by VGA cable. I thought that the problem could be something to do with either the screen saver sleep or the settings mode, so I checked the power options and found that the two 'turn it off display", and"Put the computer to sleep"parameters had never chosen as their option. I ran the HP Hardware Diagnostic tools to monitor, but the tests were only good for alignment, color, brightness, etc.  I also checked to see if she needed a driver updated by the following process: computers > properties > tasks > Device Manager, and then clicking on other devices and by double clicking on the monitor; on the general tab, it displays the message, "this device is functioning correctly.

    After a few weeks over time, sleep button thing has stopped working and I tried to leave the monitor on the night with the computer turned off. When the computer was returned the next day, the monitor took over the rattling again, but still it would end by lights.

    Currently, I've resorted to press the button sleep when the monitor does not start alone, so far successfully startups, but I'm afraid it will cease to begin.

    Does anyone know a solution to this problem?

    The computer is a desktop PC of HP Pavilion a6637c-b with a HP w2207h monitor LCD 22 inch flat screen with Auto Picture Rotation function. The OS is a Windows Home Premium, 64-bit edition. The computer has 5 GB memory and 640 GB hard drive. I will provide more information hardware or software if necessary.

  • Vs ATI HD 4650 DVI VGA - monitor attached to VGA not clear - what to do

    Well, I had this problem for awhile now. Seems that it is quite common. Have a desktop HP elite with the ATI HD 4650 Vid. Two better monitors from Dell. The monitor plugged into the side VGA is less strong. I confirm this by changing their and the problem follows the VGA connection (tried both cables also). Yes, is there any use by running the DVI cable down to the video card on LCD with an adapter on the VGA port? I think not because I'd just be using the DVI cable to trasmit a VGA signal. My only solution is to replace the video card by one who has two DVI connectors?

    The series of programs is 10.9 but driver 8.771 depending on the operating system and video card.  Go to the ATI web site for the latest video card driver.  HP is originally on the update of the video card driver.
