PC won't display 2 monitors at the same time

[pedrodi2121]

the HDMI cable you use for the Samsung TV monitor, you change the source on the TV to be HDMI?

i did, nothing changed

 

[pedrodi2121]

Really grasping at straws here- should not make any difference because your cpu does not support graphics,
Can you go into the bios
1) make sure Pcie slot 1 is set as the 1st display.
2) disable on board graphics - I know you do not have on board - but worth a try.
3) i do not know if graphics slice ratio could cause this problem.
Pics attached

1- it was already set
2- there is no on board options in my bios
3- i dont know either lol

sorry, this is just one of those classic problems that hit you from left field and you spend way more time on it then you thought possible, or it warrants.
it was working, changed mobo and power supply, then it stopped.
but does work if 2nd monitor is not the TV!

all the things we have tried haven't helped, and they should have, logically that points to the TV as the issue.

so..... I'm thinking this is really stupid and the answer is so obvious, we aren't seeing it staring at us in the face.

or..... and I don't know why, that Samsung TV has just gone stupid and can no longer be used as a 2nd monitor.

 

[pedrodi2121]

Yeah, at first i thought it was just a problem with the tv itself but it works fine when its by itself, maybe the tv just doesnt want to work as a second monitor, it's tired of not being the main one, idk lol, well, thank you all for the help, probably just going to give up at this point, if at anytime you guys have an idea just let me know

 

[Bruce]

yeah - I'm out of ideas too.
as I said, this is a strange one, but one I feel should be bloody simple!!!

 

[PeterOz]

Any ideas @phillpower2

 

[pedrodi2121]

When we do figure it out it's going to be the highest point of my life lol

 

[PeterOz]

I am totally out of ideas.
Still running through my mind. If I think of something I will come back

 

[pedrodi2121]

Ok, appreciate the support through these days, im sure we will get it someday

I posted at another forum to see if anyone else could help and someone posted this

something new to try
make a ubuntu bootable usb or dvd
https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows#1-overview NO install needed
Boot with both monitors and see what happens

 

[pedrodi2121]

I created a dvd bootable one, i restarted the computer, it didnt work out, also when i turned it back on, the dvd bootable thing was gone

As in it did not boot or it did not show 2nd monitor

 

[pedrodi2121]

I might have done it wrong i think, do you mind explaining to me how to do it? ive been looking at it for hours now and i cant get it, what am i supposed to do?

 

[PeterOz]

depending on computer. On mine all I have to do is boot computer and press F12
It gives me an option what to boot from.
The other option is to go into the bios and set cd as first boot device.
When it boots take the option TRY UBUNTU

 

[pedrodi2121]

So, on mine is the same as yours, i booted the pc, pressed f12 and try ubuntu is not there, how do i make it a option? im sorry if im being too slow lol

 

[PeterOz]

im sorry if im being too slow lol

Not a problem
When yo press F12 does it give you an option to boot from CD or DVD ?
If yes choose that option

 

[pedrodi2121]

It doesnt give me a cd or dvd option, the toshiba one is my external drive, ive tried with it, it didnt work

 

[PeterOz]

Back to square 1

Ok when you downloaded the older drive I gave a link to.
did you use the ddu uninstaller as per post #51 and then run the driver I gave you.
Do you know how to run the installer I gave you?
