Graphic Cards :: Second Monitor Shows Black Screen - Cannot Display This Video Mode

Using Windows 7 both monitors were being detected/used. How to correct. The second display shows a black screen with the message "Cannot Display This Video Mode".
View 6 RepliesChrome Blurry On Second Monitor After Display Scaling On Main Monitor
Aug 10, 2015So recently I upgraded to windows 10 at the same time I got a 4k display.When I set the display scaling to 150% on my main 4k monitor and ensuring that the scaling stays at 100% on my other two 1080p monitors, the entire chrome application is blurry when viewing on the 1080 monitors, and I cannot seem to fix this. Other applications seem to be okay.
Furthermore after the scaling change, some icons on my 1080 monitor's desktop get larger, as if some scaling is applied to them. Is there any solution to this? At the moment I have had to set the scaling back to 100% on my main monitor in order to use chrome on the smaller monitors.
Monitor / Display Will Not Turn Off?
Aug 4, 2015Using the same settings and programs as in my 8.1 installation. Nothing funny, or game-related running in the background (also tried disabling everything possible). The problem is that the monitor will not turn off, either from the Power/Display power-off options (nothing happens after set time passes), or with a program like ScreenOff and Monitor Off.
Using one of these apps, will start turning the monitor off, but it will turn itself back on automatically almost immediately. Something is interfering but I cannot figure out what. No security software installed (using Defender, tried disabling it). The only way this works as intended, is in Safe Mode.
Monitor Display Won't Turn Off
Sep 1, 2015I upgraded my Windows 8.1 computer to 10 over a month ago. Although I like Windows 10 a lot, there is a problem I've been having with the monitor not turning off automatically.
The display is set to turn off after 5 minutes of inactivity, but it never does. No matter how long I set the wait time. I set up a hot key to automatically turn the monitor off. It worked in 8.1 but in Windows 10 the monitor turns off for a half second and then turns right back on.
I did not change any hardware settings when I went from 8.1 to 10. I've tried unplugging various things connected via USB but nothing so far has solved this problem.
The monitor I have is the Dell E2414Hx 24-Inch Screen LED-Lit Monitor.
Display Monitor Setting Changes On Startup
Aug 16, 2015I have a Toshiba laptop running Windows 10. My main display monitor is a LG 24 widescreen plugged into the laptop.
With Windows 7, I had no problems in using Fn key f5 to set the display to only the LG (showing as "CRT" on the screen). This did not change when I re-booted the laptop.
With windows 10, it reverts back to to the default setting and I get the laptop screen and the monitor lit up.. I frequently get a different resolution on the display too, until I open the laptop and re-set the display with the Fn key. This is annoying, as I use an external keyboard (which doesn't flip the Fn key) with the laptop lip down.
I've also tried via Control Panel (Display) but that doesn't hold the setting either.
GPU Will Only Display To TV When Another Monitor Is Also Connected To Motherboard?
Aug 9, 2015For the last 2 months since I got my new PC, I have been using my TV as a monitor for my PC. I had a few issues with resolution due to my TV overscanning the display but I used the resize feature in the NVidia control panel. However, yesterday when I downloaded Windows 10, it installed fine but when my computer opened up again it was trying to use my TV's native resolution which was a problem because of the overscanning. So I went to the NVidia control panel, and when I clicked the resize button (before choosing the new resolution) the TV just said it was receiving no input. Whenever I then tried booting my PC, it would display to my TV until Windows had loaded, then it would say no input.
The same thing happened when I connected to the TV through my motherboard rather than my GPU. So I spent ages trying to get it to work and eventually connected it to an old monitor. However the monitor only has a DVI input slot, which my GPU doesn't have, so I had to connect it through my motherboard and it worked fine. I then uninstalled all NVidia stuff from my computer, including the gpu from my device manager, and manually installed the new GTX 970 windows 10 driver from their website.
When this was done, I connected my graphics card to the tv through the HDMI, keeping the computer connected to the monitor through the motherboard. Both displays then worked as a dual display setup. However, even now whenever I try booting up my PC with only my gpu connected to the TV the same thing happens that was happening before and the TV will only display through the GPU when the motherboard is also connected to the monitor. I have ordered a DVI to HDMI cable so I can attach my monitor directly to the GPU, which will hopefully work, and then I will stop using my TV, but I would rather fix this problem and carry on using the TV until I can buy a better monitor.
64bit Monitor Display Turns Off After 2 Minutes?
Dec 20, 2015I have three PC's all running the same OS setup but one no matter what I try after 2 minutes the display goes blank, move the mouse and the desktop is there! I found in link but for Windows 7 with the term called "System unattended sleep timeout" added to Advanced Power Settings" but cant find anything like this in Windows 10. And I do not know even if this feature is part of Windows 10 it could be something totally different.
View 5 RepliesDisplay On Main Monitor Was Out Of Bounds (1920x1080)
Aug 12, 2015Today I upgraded to windows 10, and the first thing I noticed was that the display on my main monitor was out of bounds(1920x1080 btw). I know the task-bar and icons on the desktop are there, but they aren't in the frame of the monitor. My other display is flawless, but the main one isn't. I turned down the refresh rate from 60 to 30 on the main monitor, and that let me see everything on my desktop, however, there is a flicker when I go over stuff. Also, I feel that there is somewhat of an input lag with the mouse.
View 1 RepliesDisplay Monitor Will Not Turn Off (sleep) Since Upgrading From Win7
Aug 10, 2015Since upgrading from Windows 7 x64 to Windows 10, my monitor/display on my desktop will no longer go to sleep/turn off after the scheduled 5 minutes. I had no issues with this in Windows 7. I have updated the BIOS, video drivers, USB wireless mouse driver and anything that could be related and no change. All i want is for the monitor to turn off after the set time. I don't use a screensaver. There is no driver update for the monitor (Viewsonic VX2450). I've also tried uninstalling the monitor driving and reinstalling but no change. Seems like the system also will not sleep when set to sleep.
View 3 RepliesDrivers :: Doesn't Recognize Monitor
Feb 13, 2016I'm having trouble to get picture on my main and only monitor when booting up. The green led indicator on the monitor is just flashing.
Usually I have to push the restart button 10-15 times until picture finally appears. Sometime I am able to log on in the dark. Hit space and logon, then do a win+p until picture appears.
I've tried to uninstall the drivers, but that didn't solve it. I had to use a different monitor to get in for the first time after that. Driver is the most recent one.
Doesn't Save Display Preferences
Dec 20, 2015So every time I reboot, the "language" icon is in the lower right, even though I've repeatedly told it not to display.
And there pretty much always seems to be programs that enable themselves at startup, even though I keep disabling them. I think programs do this after being updated, but is there any way to stop it, specially since Win10 forces updates on you?
I really don't want iTunes, and DropBox and 2 antivirus programs starting everytime I reboot.
Why Doesn't Desktop Display Wallpaper
Jul 30, 2015I upgrade to Windows 10 from 7.1 today and everything seems to be working fine, but it won't display any desktop images. Trying to select one of the images in the customization screen or another image using the search option won't result in any changes. Right clicking an image and setting it as background image doesn't work also. I checked the Ease of Access options and it is set to display Windows background.
Solid color backgrounds work correctly. Slide show seems to be not available.

View 1 RepliesChanged Resolution Too High - Monitor Doesn't Support
Oct 13, 2015I'm using Amd radeon graphics, windows 10, of course, but the problem is that i unleashed my change-settings-see-what-happends power and i changed my graphic cards resolution a little too high... And now i only get the error screen 'resolution too high, change it to 1280x1024■60fps'.
But i cant do that if I'm unable to login to my desktop. And actuallt i DID reach safe mode trough F8 but i screwed it, I changed the resolution in system settings, cuz i could not reach the graphic driver... so i restarted my computer without any profit, and now i can't get back to safe mode either...
Taskbar Doesn't Stay On 2nd Display After User Switching
Aug 9, 2015I have a problem with my taskbar. I have 2 monitors and I like to keep the taskbar on the secondary display, vertically at the right hand side of the screen. My other half has a separate account on our PC and she has the taskbar the same way.
When she logs in to her account while I'm still logged in and then when I switch back to my profile, the taskbar is being moved from display 2 back to display 1 - however it stays vertically on the right hand side. I.e. Windows can't seem to remember which display the taskbar is on, but it can remember the location of the taskbar.

PC Often Doesn't Return From Sleep - Display Stays Black While It Boots
Dec 5, 2015Ever since the newest major update, my PC has stopped resuming from sleep. It'll boot up (I think) with the keyboard and mouse lit up but the screen always stays black. Takes a hard reset to get it running at which point the sleep data is gone and wasted. I've had allow hybrid sleep on or off, had USB suspend enabled and disabled, disabled fast boot and hardware fast boot. I changed a lot of settings I thought would be related and nothing. Nothing makes the slightest difference.

View 4 RepliesSpeaker Doesn't Play MP3 / Alarm Turn Monitor Back On But Failed
Sep 29, 2015I set up a wake-up alarm in the Computer management --> Task Scheduler that automatically plays a custom mp3 every morning at 7AM.The speaker is in my monitor and it goes sleep 10 min after idle. It's ok, I don't want to keep it turned on for whole nights. But, when the scheduled alarm comes, it does not automatically turn back on the monitor and therefore its speaker doesn't play the MP3 because the monitor remains in sleep.I tired various ways to make the alarm turn the monitor back on but failed.I just need my music file played as an alarm in the mornings.
View 1 RepliesGeneric PnP Monitor Driver Doesn't Stay Disabled / Uninstalled After Restart In Boot Camp
Oct 3, 2015The generic PnP monitor driver in the device manager keeps reenabling/reinstalling itself whenever I restart Windows 10 on my early 2011 MBP (Boot Camp). I want to leave it disabled so the brightness controls on the keyboard work, otherwise they don't.
I do not want to disable automatic driver update checking by Windows 10. I know that if I turn off automatic driver installation via device installation settings and enabling "Prevent installation of other devices not described by other policy settings" will keep the "Generic PnP Monitor" driver uninstalled, and this is certainly one solution that works, but disabling these features interferes with the installation of other devices (one example is the TAP driver for the Private Internet Access Windows client).
There is no available apple display driver I can install over the generic driver that I have found, but the brightness controls work perfectly when the Generic PnP driver is disabled/uninstalled. I just wish it'd stay that way after a restart.
Screen Size Too Small For Monitor - How To Make It To Fit The Screen

View 1 RepliesScreen Falls Off Page - Resolution Doesn't Match Screen Width
Nov 5, 2015Since upgrading to Windows 10 from 7, I ran into the same issue as [URL] ....
So I tried the catalyst scaling option for my desktop and this seemed to fix the issue for mostly everything, desktop and most games, However, the problem still seems to arise with some games I try to play, such as Xcom Enemy Within or Dawn of War 2. Changing resolution in these games doesn't appear to have any effect, the image is still falling off the screen, I use my desktop on a 32 inch TV as opposed to a monitor via HDMI, and keep it set to 1600x900 as opposed to its native 1920x10180, but even leaving it at 1920 has the same effect.
I have my specs on a dxdiag file, dunno where to upload it here, but I'm using a AMD Radeon R9 200 Series on an Asus I built.

View 1 RepliesMonitor Goes To Sleep When Screen Has Lot Of Black
Aug 26, 2015I can't remember when and how this started, but definitely after upgrading from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 Pro.So, my screen (Acer LCD, connected to GTX 560 with 1 meter DVI cable) started going black (power light on, background light completely off) when I watched a video that had lot of dark on it. Happens in some games as well where the cut scenes change.
I tested it by full screening a plain black image and the screen went to sleep, mouse cursor dissapeared.Moving the mouse does not wake up the screen, only when i press Win key to bring up some color to the screen. (the task bar seems to be enough to wake the screen.)I have checked all the power settings and turned off all the sleep settings, 'Turn off display after' is set to 'Never' 'Multimedia settings' are set to ' Prevent idling ' and 'Optimize video quality'
