Two monitors / installation of a second display driver

Hello

I'm not able to get my two monitors running. I just performed a new installation; These monitors were fine with my other drive hard and windows.

I checked my display drivers in Device Manager and there is only one pilot listed under display cards

ATI Radeon HD 3800 series

I know it is supposed to be two of these listed, but there is not... Windows does not detect my secondary monitor... two of these monitors are the same and both connected by a DVI input on the graphics card.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers several times with no progress.

I have excluded sons and defective connectors by switching autour and he always seems to be the same screen that works on its own...

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you

Arthur

Good so I solved the problem...

Apparently, all I had to do was the eve of my machine and cut off from all power using the power bar for a few seconds until all residual power is gone, turn back on my machine and Voila!

An easy solution for this aggravating problem...

  • Second hard drive Dell Inspiron 3847

    Can someone direct me for information on the installation of a second hard drive for Inspiron 3847 computer for the purpose of the image upwards using the Acronis True Image Home software upward? There is room for an optical drive, which is totally alien to me, but nothing is said nowhere in the hardware in the user manual on the addition of second hard drive that seems to be a pretty normal material adding. No sense in this matter. First time forum thank you poster

    toplap

    Dell has not released the procedures to install an additional SATA hard drive, the Inspiron 3847 has a 3.5 Bay ", one for the second hard drive next to the main hard drive, there should be a set of rails located in the Bay, two 6-32 X 1/4, Phillips head screws are required to secure the Rails.

    Procedures on pages 26 to 28 of the owners manual should give you an idea of what is required for installation.

    http://FTP.Dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_inspiron_desktop/Inspiron-3847-desktop_Owner%27s%20Manual_en-us.PDF

    You will need a SATA data cable, there should be a spare connector to SATA power inside the housing.

    After you have installed the drive, enter the system setup and make sure the hard drive is "on" [We] and recognized.

    For Windows to recognize the second hard drive, it must be partitioned and formatted.

    Go to control panel, administrative tools, computer management, storage, disk management, right click on the new drive, select format, then you can assign a drive letter.

    I am wanting to know if it is possible to run both hard drives in this computer to the max storage?

    Derplax

    Yes, the Inspiron 560 MT supports two 3.5 "SATA internal hard drives.

    Dell has not released written instructions for adding an additional SATA hard drive in the 560 MT

    But as the Tower of 530 Dell Mini has the same chassis, the same procedures can be used.

    Instructions for the installation of a second hard drive physically here are:

    Then partition, format the hard drive and it assigned a drive letter by using disk management.

    I have an Inspiron 530 standard.

    My main 320 HARD disk drive is approaching full and I want to add a second internal HDD.

    My intention was to use the new drive as a secondary drive just to store and edit photos.

    Can anyone recommend a compatible drive about 500 GB in size I can use.

    Can you tell me if there a SATA drive that I need, recommended speed (RPM) and I'll need to get all the connectors etc.

    Thanks in advance for your help and advice

    Assuming you have the Inspiron 530 mini tour and not Slimline 530 s version.

    You can install any SATA 3.5 "internal hard drive 7200 RPM up to 2 TB without problem.

    Discover the brands Seagate and Western Digital, also check the length of the manufacturer's warranty, unfortunately hard drives prices are extremely high, due to the flooding of the Thailand, readers, I bought last September for $40 with a promo, now costs $108.

    Instructions for the installation of a second hard drive physically in a 530 are here.

    You will need a SATA data cable, there should be a spare connector to SATA power inside the housing.

    After you have installed the drive, enter the system setup and make sure the hard drive is "on" [We] and recognized.  The system configuration.

  • Installation of the HP 550 display driver > black screen; restart: black screen.

    It seems my HP 550 (Celeron 1.73 GHz, 2 GB ram, x 3100, graphics etc.) does not accept the display driver which is available at the hp driver download page.

    I also tried an of intel directly, with exactly the same results on W2k SP4 and Windows XP SP2 home edition.

    During the installation of the driver, at some point after the copy, the system goes to a command prompt-looking on the back with a cursor blinking for a few seconds, it looks like its running a batch in full screen or similar file.

    After that, I guess, try to use a new display mode - without guest - and breaks down (screen becomes quite dead).

    I have to turn the system and then turn if I want to do something with it.

    Windows seems to start, but after the logo "xp" screen gets dead/black again.

    On a normal pc I start in safe mode and change the display settings, but I can't do with this laptop for some reason any:

    After starting in safe mode, I can't change the resolution or color settings, and also I can not change the settings for the "monitor".

    (The monitor settings are just disabled, the color and resolution can be changed, but apply new settings just does not do anything).

    IM at a loss, and, since I have no experience with laptops, I came here

    Here is the link for the driver, I just at the exit of the site to intel:

    http://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?AGR=Y & ProductID = 2800 & DwnldID = 17353 & strOSs = 44 & OSFullName = Windows * % 20XP % 20Professional & lang = fra

    hp driver I've tried is 'sp39798 '.

    Thanks in advance for any ideas...

    I wanted to just report, I just formatted the entire hard drive and reinstalled from scratch with a different win xp cd (sp3 and sata drivers included), now the gfx drivers work as they should and display works fine.

    Good bye

  • Two monitors is not displayed when both connected

    Everything worked before installing the video driver of the AutoCad Web site.  Now when I run sys with two connected mons the "Unable to display - optimal resolution 1280 X 1024" msg - I unplug a monitor and others, then displays the login screen of Windows 7 and I can use the system.

    T5600 station work Dell, graphics Nvidia Quadro 4000 card, monitors Dell 2 1280 X 1024 (models 1907 & 1908).

    After the driver installation, the control panel was a "mosaic" option, I thought I was to extend the desktop on two monitors (extending over them) and I thought I would try it - big mistake - don't remember exactly what happened then but to restart get the msg above.  I unplugged one of the monitors to connect to another in the hope of resolving the problem, and that's when I discovered that the other monitor will display video if they both were not connected. ???

    Since then, I tried to restore the driver, installed a video driver from the Dell website and I'm still being downloaded from the Dell drivers in the hope that I'll get lucky.  I'm still at the point where the two monitors connected to cause the msg but that one monitor and everything is fine?

    Any help much appreciated!

    Always include the version of Windows in your messages.

    You could try a system restore to last date available before you installed this AutoCad driver. Personal folders shouldn't be affected but still good backward first. How to access the system restore depends on which version of Windows you are using...

    After the system restore, you must reinstall all updates to Windows or some other updates that were initially installed after the date used to restore the system. But - of course - does not reinstall the driver of AutoCad.

  • Satellite C660 - M21G SM bus controller and display driver installation problem

    Hello

    I recently bought toshiba Satellite C660 laptop M21G with windows 7 32 bit installed (not not licensed) and I installed all the hardware drivers except the SM Bus controller and driver of Nvidia GeForce graphics card, this because it will not terminate on the web site of toshiba, or other medium there but when I try to install the Chipset utility or the display driver (driver VGA) an error message appears in the two installation indicates that I have not matched the software requirments of minimum requirements for the installation of the display adapter and chipset.

    I don't know why these requirments does not include in the error message?

    I have more than 12 hours, trying to find a way to install the display driver, because the standard VGA driver that installed windows 7 (32-bit) is very poor and I can't run any games or smooth video game
    I'm hurt and I need help

    Best regards

    To my knowledge, the Satellite C660-M21G belongs to the series of PSC1SE.
    I m wondering where did you get the right driver for this series display
    The laptop seems to bear the NVIDIA GeForce 315 M card

    I checked the page European Toshiba and not all driver Win 7 32 bit drivers are available on the European driver page I think you tried to install the wrong graphics driver or is not compatible and that's why this error message during the installation of the drivers.

    But it seems that Win 7 64-bit driver is available for this series, that's why I recommend you to test the driver for Win 7 64 bit.
    In this case, you need to install the Realtek card reader controller driver SM bus controller can be the card reader There is also a version of driver Win 7 64 bit on the European driver page

    My current setup:

    • ThinkPad x 230
    • Docking station series 3 ban
    • EVGA UV Plus + 39 vga box to allow setting up dual monitor

    I have the following problem, I don't know if they are related:

    First question:

    • When I close the lid on my laptop, it stops. I expect it would display Desktop on my two monitors.

    Second question:

    If I'm away from my computer, my screen become white.

    • I tried pressing the keys on my keyboard to wake up my system [does not]
    • I tried to open the lid: computer laptop screen is blank
    • So I have to shut down my computer, open the cover of the screen, and then close the lid and they press the button on my docking station to display Desktop to my two monitors?

    Do you know what causes this problem?

    Moderator edit: matched subject to content.

    1. disable stop option for "lid closed" settings within the app Lenovo Power Manager (Group of event parameters).
    2 could you be more clear. Please? Your laptop is going to sleep several minutes later (5? 15? same?) we let him? And you can not wake him normally?

  • Unable to second monitor installation

    Original title - display settings are not saved

    I just bought a second monitor.  I want this monitor as an extension of my primary monitor.  When I go to display settings and try to attach the second monitor, check extend the desktop to this monitor and apply, it always comes back to 1 monitor, default settings.  How can I save the new settings?

    Did you install appropriate drivers for the new monitor - if this isn't the case, please get it from the manufacturer of the monitor and install them (even if you've used versions on the disc that came with the monitor, updates that can solve this problem may be available).  The second monitor work at all in any configuration dual monitor?  The second monitor actually works at all - did you see images and screens on this subject?  Are you sure that the second monitor is compatible with the video card, it is attached (some integrated video cards and even additional cards do not have a lot of power and unable to properly run a screen wide and high resolution - and may not work at all or may work only partially or sporadically problems).  I try right here dismiss the possibility that there may be a material, the connection or compatibility issue before moving on to software problems.

    See the following article: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Understanding-multiple-monitors.  If this doesn't resolve the problem, then wait the right for links to see also articles and check as well (and they can also lead to even more).  In the end, you should be able to access all items from Microsoft on setting up, troubleshooting and configuration of two monitors in Vista.  Hopefullly an article will identify you missed a step or point out exactly where is the problem. I suspect that the system is not properly configured to use two monitors and that is why you are having this problem.  I don't think that he "s it does not save the settings (if this can be a symptom) as much as it is that the system doesn't fully recognize it is in dual screen mode - although I don't know why because I don't know what you've done to put in place.

    Here's a simple article on how to setup two monitors-, but I suspect it is perhaps too simplistic to this situation (although it may report a fundamental issue that must be treated):http://www.ehow.com/how_5960696_setup-windows-vista-desktop-computers.html.

  • Problem with the monitor Panel and display driver - first Elements 9

    9 PE worked fine since I bought it two months ago and then this week I opened the program, he stated "we have detected an incompatible display driver.

Then when the open program of the monitor Panel was not working properly. If I click on the Panel, I can see an image of the video, but when I click to play the video, the sound works well, but nothing happens in the monitor Panel. It justs keep showing the same image without change.

    It was the latest driver but I reinstalled it just to be safe, and he still has the same problem. I have updated first Elements 9 but still the same problem. I am running the application on Windows XP.

    I'm at a loss to know what to do. Why all of a sudden he does it when it works fine?
