l am trying to use my Dell Desktop Inspiron 2350 All-in-one desktop as a Monitor for my Acer Laptop. I bought the correct HDMI cable and the shop owner told me to connect the cable with my laptop HDMI OUT port andexternal display HDMI IN port.I told him it didn't work and he told me I may needto switch my display's input source to HDMI port Iplug-in. Does anyone know how to do this or solve my problem?This is the message I see on my laptop when I use thecable: “Didn't detect another display”

Dell XPS 15.6 Monitor issues

Hi,

Monitors may not work as expected if the driver is not up-to-date. With this said, we suggest that you check if you have the latest drivers installed. In addition, we would like to ask some questions that may help us to isolate the issue.

• Does the external monitor work with your laptop before?
• Have you tried to connect the external monitor to your desktop?
• When did the issue start?
• Were there any changes made to your computer prior to the issue?
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

We're looking forward to your response.

 

Splitting virtual desktop in multiple monitors doesn't fit the screen

Hi,

I am trying to split my virtual desktop(Citrix) between my laptop and the monitor.

When I drag the vdi in between both laptop screen and monitor and maximize it, It splits the desktop, however, the desktop comes only half on the monitor and half of the monitor keeps the original desktop making it impossible to work. Please suggest a solution
for this.
