Dual Monitor

Post by Belcherzz »

So, I hooked up a second monitor. When I started the game, the main monitor appeared to default to low res, basic settings. The second monitor looked Windows 10 normal. I tried all Windows 10 and in game settings to change the main monitor, no freaking luck.

I unplugged the second monitor from the GPU card and restarted with a single monitor. Everything reverted back to normal single monitor settings.

Anyone have some tips?

Thanks in advance......Burrrrrrrrpppppppp!

Are you using NVIDIA Card(s)? This is my setup and the * is the main display which games open.

I would 1st make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date with the drivers from that manufacture. (don't use the Microsoft drivers. I know on windows 10 and up you can set the resolution to each monitor independently and to choose your default or "main" monitor
"Does not work" is an error report for a bug between keyboard and chair.
