Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Dual setup problem
Justin   2004-03-17 01:04
There is probably an obvious answer to this, but I can't find it. I'm trying to set up a second monitor for desktop spanning with a Geforce 440MX, VGA, S-Video and DVI out. When I connect the second monitor to the DVI port using a DVI -> VGA adapter, both screens show the same (clone), and the system insists that a TV is connected (although there is none) and resolution for the second output stops at 1024. I seem to be able to set up the spanning, but the program windows disappears into the non-existing screen...

Anyone?

I haven't had that issue. Hopefully someone here has some ideas.

take it apart and put it back together

Or more specifically, uninstall the NVidia drivers until you have it up and running on Windows built-in generic VGA drivers, then reboot one more time for good luck, then reinstall the NVidia drivers from scratch. And let us know what happens.

Tried that, on the fist boot after uninstall, xp finds a vga adapter. On second boot, it installs nvidia drivers. NView still can't see DVI as output 2, both vga and DVI clones as 1...
