• Touch a touch monitor moves the cursor to respond on a different system Windows Vista multi-display monitor

  Hello!

  I joined just a touchscreen multi-touch Dell ST2220T the VGA on a Toshiba laptop. The multiscreen correctly display features, however touch events on the new monitor are sent to the screen of the laptop. There doesn't seem to be a way to make the new monitor the primary monitor, as in something similar here. In addition, if the option to solve this problem in a similar way to this solution exists in Windows Vista, it is certainly well hidden. I've sifted through all the options in Vista and came away empty-handed.
  No one knows how to fix this problem on WIndows Vista with a built-in screen that can not be changed by default?

  Hello

  Is the touch screen as the default monitor?

  Set up your touchmonitor active by default. To do this follow the steps mentioned in the link below

• Flash with multiple monitors

  Hello
  
  I have a problem with the Flash projector and multiple monitors.
  
  I'm developing an application with the .exe file running on a multiple monitor environment, when I try to get a full screen (with CTRL + F or fscommand ("fullscreen", "true")) display only goes to the main screen.
  
  The only thing that works is to maximize the application but I get the menu and the windows taskbar and the key.
  
  Someone has any idea how to solve this problem?
  
  Thank you in advance.
  
  Javier.

  I think that unless your desktop is set on both monitors and double not only a vision, full screen will always go to just the main monitor. Most graphics cards dual monitor give you the possibility of having dualview, or span.

• Multiple monitors using RDP 7 in Windows Vista x 64

  I have two computers using Windows Vista x 64 and RDP 7, both computers have two video cards, however, there is no way to activate the two monitors with remote desktop.

  Here are some tips on the configuration of the machine running Office remotely:
  -Monitors have a different layout (Vertical and Horizontal)
  -Both computers have installed SP2
  -Both computers use the NVIDIA drivers
  -L' guest computer have no connected monitor

  Up to present all the post in Internet refers is a mandatory condition the same monitor settings; However, that statement is NOT true, because I have a third computer using Windows 7, with no connected monitors, drivers NVIDIA, using the same version of RDP 7 and I am able to connect to this computer using the monitors.

  Any idea on this problem will be appreciated.

  Thank you

• Audition with multiple monitors and nVidia - crashing / flicker

  When using mulitple monitors hearing signal several times at the start, take longer to start and often crashes.  When you use a single monitor, hearing throw very well.  We run Windows 7 Pro on to Lenovo T430 with nVidia NVS 5400 M card.  I have also some Lenovo x 230 who have Intel Graphics.  When you use multiple monitors with Intel graphics card, it works fine.

  E-mail log files (na not see an option on attach firmly to this topic).  It seems that the main difference is not only with multiple monitors, but rather with nVidia graphics.  Multiple monitors on a laptop computer Intel Graphics ONLY works great... no problems.  Multiple monitors on a computer of graphics from nVidia has problems.  However, when the didn't use a monitor on nVidia computer, it works fine.

• Multiple monitors: VGA laptop to Westinghouse TV

  I have an Acer Apire 5920. My warranty has run out of earlier. I got a virus in August and had to do a full restore. I used the DVD of Windows XP instead of Vista which was OEM on my Acer when I bought it. Right now I have Win XP Home Edition 32 bit. I had to download all my drivers on the Acer site.

  My question:
  When I plug the VGA of the laptop and the TV it says no Signal on the TV. When I arrived at the display settings in the Properties menu I have only 1 screen. It says "display:" (default monitor) on
  It doesn't let me change to another. I think that I have an Intel graphics card.
  How can I activate the Multi monitor on my laptop?

  Hello E - Odc,

  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers community.

  If you had the opportunity before you install Windows XP and that you are not given a choice now, perhaps you have installed the incorrect drivers. I am not able to determine what you have installed on the Acer site.

  Also, here are some links that may be beneficial for you in the configuration of multiple screens.

  Hi Jill,

  Please note that in order to have more than 2 monitor Setup, it is essential that the video card on your laptop actually supported the possibility of having 4 monitors. Most of the high-end video cards supports the option double screen.

  You can even confirm by contacting the manufacturer.

• After upgrade, Firefox 43.0.0.5820 does not appear under actual multiple monitors V5.11! How can I fix it?

  After the V43.0.0.5820, Firefox works but is invisible on the screen. I do not remember what version I have updated since then, but this is done normally under actual multiple monitors as with all other software installed.

  Currently it is forcing me to use Internet Explorer, which works flawlessly.

  If I stop actual multiple monitors, Firefox won't stay visible well that listed in Windows Task Manager.

  When I'm out of multiple monitors, Firefox works normally.

  How can I fix it?

  I uninstalled V43 and re-installed V42. This seems to have solved the problem. I didn't answer on the forum of the AMM yet but it's still the early days. I'll post a response that I get to help a resolution.

• NB520 - support for multiple monitors

  NB520 they supported multiple monitors built in, if not, how can I have multiple monitor support my NB520? I need to use a Pewerpoint 2007 (presenter to display mode differs from the public view).

  Thanks a lot for a response in advance.

  Hi smit_Aood,

  The NB520 supports an external monitor and you can use the internal monitor + external at the same time (both monitors are supported). In addition, you can choose if you want to extend the desktop on the secondary monitor or to clone.

  Using the FN + F5 key combination, you can switch between different modes.

  Last but not least, you can use also a video projector or a TV as a second monitor. A certain computer screen is not necessary. ;)

• Want to Phoenix h9: HP Envy H9 Phoenix - multiple monitors

  No Windows 10 option above, but it's a question that began with Windows 8 and continues with Windows 10.

  I have a h9 Phoenix envy that I am very satisfied, but have had trouble with multiple monitors.  I can't find any documentation on the adding more than two monitors.  I have one running on the HDMI connector and another through the DVI.  But the addition of a third monitor became a mystery.  There are two additional DVI connections, but both were covered and when the updated seem to be connected to anything internal.  They are somewhat obscured by the food, and I'd rather not shoot to see the back side, I don't have to.

  Then, there are two additional Minies connections on the same card that DVI and HDMI connectors that I use on the first two monitors.  However, I can't find any documentation on the mini type connectors (like maybe mini DVI) I can find no cable to adapt.

  Is there something in the BIOS that must be returned to activate more ports?  Three monitors is not an option in the configuration current/components?  Can I add another video card supporting three monitors?  I have the AMD Radeon HD series 7900 graphics card.

  It seems a waste to throw away when it works so well otherwise!  He performmed flawlesly with the migration of Windows 10 and could last a little longer.

  @HawkeEye

  I suggest that you try an what AMD approved DP to HDMI adapter activewhich also works with AMD EyeFinity.

  There may be a ' I gottcha "If the AMD 7900 is an OEM HP card. HP in the past has used decorum for AMD graphics cards drivers so using a retail AMD driver could be a problem, or it might work.
