my sister is having problems with her dual monitor setup.
she is using a 9800gt as her video card.
one monitor is 24" (main monitor)
other monitor is 19"
when the 2nd monitor for the first time yesterday, it worked fine, both monitors could display their individual correct resolution.
but this morning when she went to restart her pc, the 2nd monitor would not display.
so i unhooked the 2nd smaller monitor and connected as a main monitor on a different pc in the office, works fine. so i went back to her pc and tried again, no display again.
so i tried swapping the 24" and plugging it in the slot on the back of the video card that the 19" was plugged in, and now i think i have found a problem, it did not post a display in that slot. well after about 10 mins of playing with it, i managed to get it to post a dislay in that slot. so i plugged the 19" in the other (known working ) slot and both the monitors would post display.
during all of this i did manage to install the latest driver from Welcome to NVIDIA - World Leader in Visual Computing Technologies for her 9800gt.
so with that said, when you install a new driver, you must restart the pc, well after the new restart, the 19" monitor would not post display agian.
and anyone help with this problem, should i be using n-tune to configure this setup or does the options in the control panel work fine.
(start-->control panel-->display--->settings)
just cant seem to get the 19" to work after each restart.
