Monitor HELP!!!
I am trying to connect a secondary monitor to my desktop.
Both are using VGA, Primary is connected to my NVIDIA (latest drivers) video card,
the Secondary (with no display) is connected to my onboard display,
Im pretty sure that the secondary display is active and working; my system detects it and has it as an active display, i can change its settings, and can move my mouse cursor off my primary to the secondary.
I have even changed around the BIOS settings to no avail.
1920x1080 is the primary resolution
1024x768 WAS the secondary and i tried its highest resolution of 1600x1200 but no success.
My video card has 1 output, VGA.
My primary is using VGA (It has HDMI but i do not have a cord for it nor does my pc have the connector for it).
My Secondary is strictly VGA only.
As I said before, it seems my secondary is working, just no display (and yes there is power to it).
If there is a way i can make this work without buying anything it would be great.
BTW, my Primary is a 26" flat screen Westinghouse.
My Secondary is a 16"? Compaq monitor
Please help.
If any Specs are needed to help understand my situation, please ask, im sure i can find them for you.
Thanks
