[RESOLVED] Dual Monitor Setup
Hey,
Ok, I thought this was going to be simple, but obviously, I am going something wrong.
Here is my setup:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit Edition
Geforce 8500 GT (DVI and VGA output)
Two monitors, each with only VGA Input
Most recent drivers for Graphics card installed, and all monitor drivers also installed and updated
Now, the problem.
I can get one or other of the monitors to work from the Graphic Cards VGA port, so I know both monitors are working. However, when I try to connect another monitor to the DVI port on the graphics card, using a DVI cable and then a DVI to VGA convertor, I don't get anything appearing on the monitor. The monitor just goes to sleep.
However, within Windows Display Properties, the monitor has been detected, and I am able to set the resolution of both monitors, choose the option to extend the desktop etc, but I can't get anything to appear on the second monitor.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Gary
