screensavers to halfway across two monitors

I have a Dell computer, two monitors running on Windows 7. The screen saver displays halfway on both screens and I can't make the image display on one or the other.  I tried display settings and they are not helping.  Does anyone else have this problem?

Hello

What is the current multiple monitor display settings?

Follow these methods mentioned below and check.
Method 1: I suggest you to check the display resolution value for both monitors. Make sure that the resolution of the screen is the same on each display.
 
For more information, see: get the best display on your monitor
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/getting-the-best-display-on-your-monitor

Method 2: Duplicate the display settings and check if you can view the screen saver correctl. there.

To change your display settings to duplicate.
a. open the screen resolution by clicking on the Start button, click Control Panel, and then under appearance and personalization, click adjust screen resolution.
b. click on the drop down next to several screens, click duplicate these screensand then click OK.
The option appears only when Windows detects multiple displays, more than one monitor connected to your PC.

  • can I put my taskbar across two monitors?

    I hooked to a monitor to go with my laptop and I want the taskbar to be available on both screens. I want to continue to use the dual monitors as separate screens (I put "extend these screens") can I do? Also if there is another cool thing I should know about using two monitors like this, because this is the first time I've ever used this feature.

    You will need to use a non-microsoft program to do what you want to do. You can use a program like Ultamon to do. However, most if not all of these programs are not free. UltraMon has a free 30 day trial, but you would have to pay to use it after that.

    I can stretch the other windows like adobe reader across two monitors, but the XP virtual machine window can be extended a bit bigger than a monitor. Virtual machine window can be passed a window to each other very well... just not expandable wide two monitors.

  • Do I have reason to infer that I can't get two monitors running on my HP Pavilion Elite HPE - 410 t?

    I got the Pavilion Elite HPE - 410 t with the included nVidia GeForce 315 graphics card and tried to get two monitors put in place. I have two VGA screens and I run one of them off the coast of DVI using a VGA port to DVI, and it works fine. However, I can not all signals from the built-in VGA port, so I started to look around the site of HP. I came across a page that lists the motherboard Plug and he shouted that the embedded video is not available if a graphics card is installed.

    Thus, it seems that I am out of luck, but I just wanted to see if anyone could tell me if it is maybe something obvious that I'm missing. My nVidia monitors also has an HDMI port, but I understand that I would need a HDMI monitor to be able to use this port.

    Can someone let me know if I'm wrong in my understanding of my options, or if there is an easy solution?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Yes, you are right to assume that if you have a video card installed, the integrated graphics chip is disabled.  Looking at the specifications of your card (see link below), he suggests that it has a VGA, DVI and HDMI connection.  However, I realize that these specifications vary and may not apply to the card that you have.

    NVIDIA GeForce 315

    If yours doesn't have the VGA adapter, then your also had reason to assume need you a monitor with an entry in order to use 2 monitors HDMI.

  • 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.

    This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause

  • Excel on two monitors, the window is uneven

    I use Excel like this for years and never had a problem. Received a new computer with Windows 7 and Office 2010. Now, when I minimize Excel and stretch it across my two monitors, the window of excel is more horiztonally even on both monitors. In the secondary monitor, the bottom edge is higher than the lower edge of the primary monitor of 2.5 inch.

    Help, please.

    Hello

    For several years I have seen the problem that shows your image.

    You can see in the picture the monitor of the number 2 is offset, vertically with respect to the number of monitor 1.

    You can move the monitor autour images using the mouse in the same way as you would move a shortcut on the desktop.

    Place the mouse cursor on Monitor 2, hold down the left mouse button and drag the image upwards slightly until it is aligned with the number of the monitor 1.

    Click apply/OK.

    Test and let us know the results.

  • How to extend to two monitors?

    I have a Macbook Pro that I bought this year. I want to connect it to my KVM DVI switch for two monitors. It will work with a bolt of lightning for two adapters to DVI ports? If so, any recommendations on what card? If option 1 is not possible, I guess I need two crush on DVI adapters. However, without worrying that we I get, I need to work in extended mode and not just mirroring. Is this possible with the MacBook Pro?

    I'm looking at present one this one on Amazon. Any recommendation is also appreciated.

    with the exception of the Apple ThunderBolt display NO display use ThunderBolt directly. They all pick up a subset of the ThunderBolt signals off the same connector, called Mini DisplayPort. Mini DisplayPort and its twin full size are "next generation" display interfaces.

    DisplayPort family attribute this and display-decision makers interface wanted to for a long time. Refresh 'heartbeat', 60 to 100 times per second is GONE. Only changes are sent in most of the time. The display must have an internal display buffer. Talk about framerate for DisplayPort has no meaning.

    The signal levels are very low, but use differential driver (or push-pull) circuits to very good noise protection.

    If you choose to convert to "legacy" display protocols, you can do it on a limited basis, with constraints. Long cables or more than TWO screens "legacy" will lose the signal strength and must be stimulated with ACTIVE DVI adapters, usually around US$ 40, who re-pilots to signal them upward.

    Using DVI screens larger than worms 1920 wide requires a Dual-Link, much more complicated and expensive adapter.

  • 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?

    Thank you

  • Portege Z30 16 GB with high speed Port Replicator III and two monitors - resolution

    I have a Portege Z30 with 16 GB of Ram, connected to a Toshiba high speed Port Replicator III which is connected to two monitors running in mode extended.

    The monitor attached to the first section of the video is 1920 x 1200 running.
    However the second monitor is only show support for a maximum of 1280 x 1084.

    The monitors are identical, and both are connected by DisplayPort cables.

    I tried to lower the resolution and save the settings on the first monitor to see if it offered options on the second monitor, but the options remained the same.

    At this point, I have narrowed down to 1280 x 1024 so that it conforms to all the monitors but would like to a plus-res solution.

    Does anyone know if there is a fix/work-around for this?
    If this is a hardware limitation, has anyone tried a USB 3 to DisplayPort adapter in a similar configuration?

    Thank you!

    At the same time using two displayports?
    I wonder how it is possible, because of my knowledge it is not possible... as far as I know the Port Replicator III supports two DisplayPorts but you could choose and use one of them...

    In any case, you can use both with a lower resolution, I guess that this problem can be caused due to incompatible display drivers.
    I suggest you to uninstall reinstall or update the display drivers and check if it helps

    Is it possible to connect two monitors to a HP 8425F?

    Kaymac2, welcome to the forum.

    You need to add a discreet 'PCI Express x 16 video card' which has two connectors; DVI - D, DVI - I, HDMI, etc.  The embedded video is not available when a video card is installed.

    Adding a video card may require a power supply (PSU) upgrade, as well.  More mid-level of video cards require a minimum of 400 w to work properly.  The power supply of the computer is 350W.
