Dual monitors

[Zippeer]

I know this is the right place becous it's not the graph card that's wrong it's windows 7..

I wanna go dual monitors but windows 7 wont let me!

I have the exact same setup as i had when i was using win XP and it worked then but it just won't work now with W7

Give me a screen shot for your monitor setup.

 

[Lemur]

In adjust screen resolution, click DETECT if only one monitor is showing.
You have one monitor working - I'm assuming.
What happens if you switch monitors? Does the 2nd monitor now work?
Are both cables secure to monitor and card?

 

[Zippeer]

What do u mean by that? A screen shot of the resolution and so on ?

Btw windows 7 won't me use the VGA port on my graph card that's what's wrong. The screen thats connected to the VGA won't get a signal and just enters power safe mode

Have you installed Ati radeon drivers and looked in its control panel?

 

[Zippeer]

I have installed newest ati 10.7.

I don't get the screen up when i try detect i have to use "Display devide on: VGA" and that wont give the screen any signal.

 

[Lemur]

I know you said it just worked before 7, but did you remove vga cable and, if so, are any of the pins bent?

 

[Zippeer]

The VGA cabel works just fine when i only use the integrated graph card so nothing wrong with the VGA cabel

 

[Anthony]

Try booting up with only the other monitor connected.

 

[Zippeer]

That did not work. It still gets no signal

 

[logicearth]

Sounds like something is iffed with the VGA port on your card.

 

[Zippeer]

Well the thing is i just got it back from repair + it's a new card nothing should be wrong with it

 

[logicearth]

Does the monitor (having just the VGA monitor plugged in) get a signal when the computer boots?

 

[Anthony]

That gfx card has one vga & one dmi?

Have you set your monitor to accept dvi signal on your monitor ??

 

[Thorsen]

Have you tried with just the VGA monitor to see if the Monitor does in fact get a signal on its own?

 

[Zippeer]

@logicearth: No it don't

@Anthony: The GFX card has HDMI, DVI, VGA as it is now it looks like only DVI is working.

The screen with the VGA cabel has only the VGA cabel connected and is set to VGA as input source

@Thorsen: Yes i just tried to boot with only VGA and it still don't get a signal. But i think im gonna put in the GFX card in another computer with Win XP and see if it works then

 

[Anthony]

So the monitor with the vga connector wont get a signal, can you test it at a friends house or on the back of a laptop? We need to know if the monitor is working!!

 

[Zippeer]

The monitor is working i used it with VGA last week when i was waiting for this GFX card

 

[logicearth]

If the monitor gets no signal when the computer boots (Windows is not loaded or involved) that points the problem to hardware. Or a mis-configuration of the hardware.

 

[Thorsen]

It is very possible for the g-card to be faulty. It happens. even brand new.
