• 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.

• Is the monitor of imagery needed on the taskbar if you do not print? How many...

  I have checked old solutions here and do not have quite the same issue, I would like to ask.

  I have the Solution Center on the old pc with XP. Works well, thank you, and several resources always help the XP'. I also have a HP with 8. How many resources it takes and don't forget that it is a netbook pc which tend to be more slow start. All I could eliminate might help.

  My question is on the XP that monitor must be loaded every time if you do not plan to print? Could not be loaded just before the solution center if that was the program that I run?  Thank you very much!

  Hi @jnepoore,

  Now, I'm not 100% certain, but I'm sure that the digital imaging monitor is not necessary. However it helps maintain a constant communication between the printer and the software. Take a look at what I found:

  Posted by rnfolsom

  Picardjc wrote that "Digital imaging monitor is part of the HP software that communicates with your HP printer. This program allows to read the ink levels, get an out of paper message, scan from the device to the computer and so on. Its not necessary, but it will limit the use of printers if you delete. "Understood. But for my printer HP Officejet Pro 8000 A809a, what is the purpose of having the digital imaging monitor icon in the taskbar Windows7 sp1 of the Notification area (aka system tray)? My A809a is NOT an all-in-one that includes a scanner; It is simply a very good printer. When I start to print something, if you need ink or paper, that information is displayed on the screen of my computer. So I ask again: why is the icon of monitor digital imaging on the taskbar? I clicked on at the time of this icon (I not print anything, but as usual, the printer is turned on), and nothing happened. R.N. (Roger) Folsom
  

  P.S., Below I'll post some other discussions (with links to their locations) of the digital imaging monitor, I discovered before finding this site on which I am writing. There are a variety of opinions on what makes the digital imaging monitor. HP Digital Imaging Monitor is for HP director system tray access. This is necessary if you want to use the buttons of all-in-one on a HP printer all in one to scan documents or transfer photos from a camera manually. Closing the icon monitor HP digital imaging in the Windows system tray can cause the HP all-in-one to lose part of its scanning features and not the connection error message. In this case, you can restore all functionality by restarting the computer or by starting the HP digital imaging monitor.

  Re: WITHDRAWAL HP Digital Imaging Monitor Systray? [Edited] 03/08/2011 14:05 - edited? 03/08/2011 14:08 Yes, it is safe to remove. In my view, it is usually in the program group under start / all programs / startup. Simply navigate under the Start button, right-click on it and delete! If it is not there, then remove it from the registry: run regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and delete it from the list in the right pane. If she is not there, then try hkey_current_user\\software\\microsoft\\windows\\currentversion\\run it's better than using msconfig and uncheck it. In my opinion, msconfig must always be set to Normal startup. Your printer will always print without that annoying obstructive utility called Digital Imaging Monitor. Ciao!

  I know that the information is specific to Windows 7, but the bottom line is, no, there is no need to run all the time. Registry keys are significantly different for XP as they are for Windows 7 while blurb does not apply. I just copied the post in its entirety for you to read through.

  Another thing to consider is uninstall the software and then download and install the base driver.

  Please let me know if this is useful, or if you have any other questions. I'm happy to do my best to help.

• Need a graphics card to connect two monitors.

  Is AMD CrossfireX and Nvidia SLI is the only way to connect two VGA?

  Original title: graphics card...

  It is not no need SLI or XFire to connect two monitors. SLI and XFire are mainly to
  improve performance by connecting the two cards together.
  SLI, to have the same model of card when you use Nvidia IE - two GTX560ti, but apparently, you can use different templates with XFire as long as they use the same gpu (it's because they sometimes "re-brand" a gpu a series on a new map in the following series).

  You can connect two monitors to a card and run games on two monitors, but the seam in the
  Middle is a problem, so it is really best to go three monitors or a larger screen.
  You can also run a game on one monitor and have something to open on the other.
  This can also be done with two cards of different model that are not related (Nvidia or ATI).
  or your integrated graphics, if you and a single graphics card.
  You can also use both outputs of an integrated graphics card to perform the duties of Office Basic
  two monitors.

  To use a combination of graphics card integrated on my machine, I have to set the graphic option and dedicated North Bridge in the BIOS to "Onboard" or the integrated graphics card will not work.
  Also, when you use a single monitor I have to choose one or the other in the BIOS as only won't work
  at the same time when you use a single monitor.  It may be different on your system.

  There are different ways to use two monitors and the Setup is different between Nvidia and ATI.
  I've only played with Nvidia, ATI and Intel HD4000 options, so cannot really elaborate on
  the installation options.
  It is probably better to play with the settings of your cards some time control panel to
  get an idea of what is what and try again forum of the mfg graphics card for more details.

• Laptop with docking home & two monitors... need to get laptop to work after the withdrawal of the docking station

  It drives me crazy.  I have a work Dell laptop connected to a station host and two double monitors. It works very well at the office that I work mainly on two large dual screens.  When I remove the laptop from the docking station and bring home the computer starts and displays a portion of my homescreen (like an extended display).  But I can't do anything else with it. I can't access my files or anything.

  What I want to do now that I'm home with my laptop is to redo the settings so that the laptop is my main screen.  The normal methods of right click and change the screen resolution do not work because I can't access my Windows start tab.  Any ideas...

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query on 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. What is the number and model of your computer and the graphics card?

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

  3. All device drivers are updated?

  Windows can detect automatically that an additional screen. If you connect two or more monitors, you must manually designate the primary display, arrange your desktop, and apply display settings, such as color depth and screen resolution. So, the next time that you connect these monitors, Windows automatically identifies the primary display and applies the settings that you previously specified for each additional display.

  Try the methods mentioned below 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.

• Two monitors for HP Slimline s5-1540?

  Hello

  I was wondering if my Slimline s5-1540 supports two monitors.  It has 2 DVI ports on the back of my Tower. I plugged a 2nd monitor additional DVI port and am get the type "undetected entry" message as if it is not plugged in.

  Is there something I need to activate/unlock?  Or I need a new video card?

  Thanks in advance

  The specifications on your slimline PC

  

  Unfortunately, your slimline PC is not really what we call stretch. Due to its slimline format, the PSU is very difficult to upgrade over what is currently installed. The previous slimline PC was UPE which was around 160 Watts. The currently installed PSU is 220W. This isn't a sufficient capacity to support the upgrade to a video card with more power and two usable output ports.

• G42-415DX: difficulties with Win7 not recognizing correctly the two monitors

  Prior to my recent relocation, I used a 2nd monitor with my laptop, where my 32 '' has the main screen, but the screen of the 14 "laptop would show other programs instituted for example PDF file. It was easy to make this configuration and I loved this multitasking.

  After a recent relocation and update the map AMD Win7 I appreciate the high resolution display on the screen of the laptop, but I am not able to repeat the simplicity with which I've done it before.

  The 2nd monitor is connected through a HDMI cable. Whether with the extend in double bill or, if I use the laptop as the main screen, office shows the program and the taskbar icons, but when I change the main view for the 2nd monitor, disappears from the task bar and the icons of the programs even beyond the screen. When the screen resolution is clcked on the desktop, both monitors display side by side, but 1 monitor is format 6 x 9 32 "with the correct name and resolution, then it should be 14" 4 x 3 laptop. 'Detect' & 'Confirm' to be 1 & 2 also shows, but the sizes are the opposite.

  I rebooted without the 2nd monitor attached and as expected, it would have it, it displays the screen of the laptop in its format 4 x 3. At the level of the office, now fix the 2nd 32 "6 x 9 (widescreen), makes the 'screen resolution' show that they are returned in size, but the correct resolution.

  All this seems to have been to update the map of the ATI AMD M880G

  I'd like the ability to use a 2nd monitor

  Any help. I would be very happy

  As suggested, I've updated graphics drivers with the latest on the HP website. My fear, after the previous update disheveled my universal Bus controllers, was unfounded.

  Whalla, everything goes well and as shown on one of your previous answers, I have managed to place a monitor (or side) above the other and Institute (under Extended display), the use of two monitors. It's exactly what I wanted.

  Thank you for your insurance.

• 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.

• Can I use two monitors on a HP 8425f

  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.

• Two monitors on Z220 Workstation

  Hello!

  I hope I can get help setting up two monitors on my workstation Z220.

  OS = Windows 7 Professional (64 bit)

  CPU = Xeon E3 1225 V2 3.2 Ghz (a supposedly graphic internal Intel HD P4000)

  Video = NVIDIA Quadro K600

  Monitor 1: HP Pavilion 27xi w/DVI interface

  Monitor 2: Interface Acer X243W w/DVI (other monitors w/interface available DVI)

  I found a guide on the HP website (http://h20195.www2.hp.com/V2/GetPDF.aspx/4AA4-4148ENW.pdf) suggesting it * is * possible to have several screens on this system, a branch of the internal graphics port, and the other attached to the graphic video card port. The completed manual to activate the onboard graphics in the BIOS (which I did), download and install integrated on the hp.com website - graphics card drivers but I can't find the drivers. Cannot download it from Intel site either.

  This form of reading a little more closely, it looks like I'll have to throw my Quadro K600 card and replace it with a NVS 300, 310 or 510 if I want two monitors on my computer Z220. Is this correct, or is the user manual HP correct and all I need are the integrated video drivers?

  Nick

  Found answer on my own with a continuous research. Finally on download for internal video driver Intel - Intel site, not HP. As soon as it was installed the second monitor will light up. They confirmed that it * is * possible to use internal graphics * and * graphics card discrete to run two monitors. Purchase of NVS 300, 310, 510 is NOT necessary. Hope this helps someone else.

• a6040n desktop system - two monitors

  I would like to install a graphics card dual monitor to HP Pavilion a6040n desktop.  Does anyone have a recommendation?  I tried a quality mid-range card, but it did not work (changed the bios to use PCI_E and disabled the embedded video.  Any suggestions or directions would be appreciated.

  DSLFAN, welcome to the forum.

  The main problem you'll have is the power of the power supply unit (PSU).  It does not say in the specs, but I think it will be 250W or 300W.  If so, it is not enough power for a good mid-level video card that supports two monitors.  I normally recommend at least 500W to 550W.  That's enough to allow future improvements as well.  The main reason is that gives you more choices of cards.  When you install the video card, the embedded video should be disabled automatically.  It is not available when a card is installed.

  I like XFX, BFG, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order.  You should stay less than 9 "long.  This ensures the card to insert in space without problems.  At this point, my preference is the AMD/ATI cards.  They have their Catalyst Control Center Suite that allows you to control the speed of the fan and overclock the card if you wish.  Don't forget, more speed equals more heat.  The map in the link I provided is a good example of what you need.  It does not have the power, but it will be at least 400W.  Read the reviews to see what they have to say.
