Display on monitor #2 is blank

gkrivac · 06-17-2011, 02:06 AM

Hi, I'm not sure if I'm duplicating threads, I didn't see this exact problem posted earlier but here goes... I had to install the updated drivers before Windows 7 would recognize another monitor. Well now I can see it under the "appearance" area in the control panel (One monitor has a #1 on it and the second monitor has a #2 on it) but the #2 monitor still remains off (well, in standby mode anyway- it does have power, but does not detect any input). I clicked "extend the displays" next to the Multiple displays" option... but nothing, it stays black.

Can anyone please provide assistance?

Thanks you!

Hi

It could be the device not booting properly and being PID 8060, as covered in the sticky thread. If you post the log files then this would confirm what the problem is.

Thanks

Wim
