    black screen on external monitor after resolution change


    i am using window 10 on a laptop.The laptop is linked to Blackmagic ATEM television studio HD video mixer, and is further connected to an external monitorThe resolution on the laptop is set to 1920 x 1080, and it is set to duplicated display. Both the laptop screen and the external monitor screen show the same visual. This is the original setting, and this is the ideal result for us.An user in our team accidentally switched the 1920 x 1080 resolution to another resolution setting, and the visual on the external monitor instantly turned into a black screen. After that the user immediately

    Different resolution for laptop screen/external monitor?

    Hey everyone,

    I recently bought an external monitor for my laptop and I would like to use both of the screens in extended mode.

    The problem is that my laptop's screen resolution is 1366x768 and the external monitor's resolution is 1440x900.
    How do I change the resolution individually for each screen? I can change the external's resolution by using "second screen only" mode, but when in extended mode, I can only go with 1366x768. I tried searching on google, but with no luck.

    Is there even a way to do this?

    Thanks in advance.
     
  3. Second monitor screen resolution problem

    Hi,

    For us to properly isolate the issue with your second monitor screen resolution, we would like to know the following:


    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?

    • When did the issue first begin?

    • To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you try resetting your monitor settings, and check if the issue still persists. You may refer to your monitor on how to reset it.

    We look forward to your response.

    black screen on external monitor after resolution change

    Different resolution for laptop screen/external monitor?

    I still haven't figured it out. In Intel graphics control panel, I can change settings individually for each monitor, but when in extended mode, I can change the external monitor's resolution to 1366x768 only. In Windows Settings (while in extended) I can't change the resolution at all:
