  1. With 3 monitor setup, I no longer have the option to "show only on 1 or 2"


    Prior to 2 days ago, I was using an LG CX 55" OLED TV plus an LG Ultragear monitor setup. The Ultragear is for gaming at my desk, while the OLED was strictly for gaming in bed.

  2. Double Monitor Setup is not connecting

    Hi Yuri,

    To setup dual monitors, I suggest you to press Windows + P keys
    and select Extend or the required option and check for status. If you are still unable to setup dual monitor, suggest you to update the Display Adapter driver by following the steps provided below and check for status.

    • Press Windows key + X and select Device Manager.
    • Expand Display Adapters.
    • Right click on the driver and select Update Driver Software.
    • Follow the on-screen prompts to update the driver.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

    Set for monitor 1/2 option is missing

    Hi Mohammed,

    Network permissions is one of the possible reasons why
    setting an image as a desktop background
    on both of your monitors
    disappeared on the list of options
    . To better assist you, we need the answers to the following questions:

    • Is your computer connected to a domain?
    • Aside from changing your desktop background, did you make any changes or
      installed a Windows update prior to this issue?

    In the meantime, we suggest creating a new user account and see if the same issue will occur while logged in to a different user profile. To do this, simply follow the steps in

    article
    .

    We are looking forward to your response.
