I got a recurring bug since 1703 using multiple monitors the icons dont stay on primary display monitor on power on or reboot they always appear on the 3rd monitor i have to select them and drag them to the 1st monitor, every single time i turn on the pc or reboot it, does anyone know a fix for this Note: if i make the 3rd monitor the primary display the icons always appear on that primary monitor after power on or reboot Edit: Solved tx for the info
already messed with those a long ago like i said its a glitch i got since 1703 probably longer than that but cant tell since i only got dual display setup since last year, i get used to it but still wanna know if someone know a fix for it..
Trying more than 2 displays always messed mine up, that's why I got splitter. Maybe some one else here knows a way. You could try in settings menu/display duplicate these displays
The way that would work is unplug all wires going to different displays but 1 monitor as primary that you are viewing, turn computer completely off. Connect 2nd monitor/TV, turn computer on, in settings menu select duplicate these displays and place check-mark in box that says make this my primary display. Turn computer off again, now hook up 3 TV/monitor, turn computer back on. In settings menu System/display make sure resolution is 100% and it says Duplicate these displays.
ok so pretty much u recomnd tu flush the detected displays from the systems and add them 1 by 1... i not use duplicate i use extended gonna give it a try i will report " a few minutes later " Edit: nope that didnt fix it.. but i noticed that on the other 2nd display "the tv" it dosnt had that bug and now i assume it has to do with the type of conector they use PC-to-Monitor 1st display Main monitor as i prefer it to be it has better image quality... its hdmi-hdmi 2nd display it is dvi-hdmi 3rd display it is dvi-dvi so i think windows try to default output to the native dvi, weird
@iFlaX wheres that option @lobo11 the splitter defeat the purpuso of multi monitor setup in extended mode, but yea maybe a dp to hdmi then the other hdmi to hmdi and the last one dvi to hdmi, it has been a while since i want to get the dp-hdmi cable since thats the only way that i can get the 3 displays to work at the same time..
If you use a Nvidia gpu you could use the Nvidia Control panel, if you're using an AMD card you can use the AMD control center (might be called catalyst control, been awhile since i've used AMD.) If you don't use either you could just use the Windows 10 Display settings, simply in either control panel choose the monitor you want as primary and there should be a toggling option below or something. So i guess you already know how to do it?
I mentioned this in the main 1803 thread, but it looks like nobody paid attention at that time. Code: usoclient startscan is no longer working, or not working as expected. It looks like it checks the time passed from the last check and only then it works, but it does no longer work on demand.
Please, do this test if you can (if have a GPU with 10 bit color support...): download the file "NEC_10_bit_video_Windows_demo" (do a search with google and find it), launch the executable and you will open two windows ... in both you will see a gray background with a cube and a triangle that rotate; but the two windows differ from the fact that one uses the 10 bits of the video card, while the other uses the simple 8 bits. By magnifying the windows individually, you should note the difference: in the one that uses the 10 bits, the colors and above all the graduated gray scale background will be homogeneous, while in the one using the 8 bits, you will notice clearly banding and posterization. Write here if GPU works correctly or not.. . Thanks. EDIT: Finally, with new Nvidia driver 397.93 QNF released today, all works fine!!!
Have you noticed that now this version loads Edge at startup, but suspended? (Tested in a VM, clean install), I wonder if there is a way to get rid of that... it wastes 100 MB or more RAM at startup, and is even removed if you start Edge and exit... it's like... a waste! XD
The reason it does that is Windows recognizes only the output of your video card (Not the adapter you change signal too). DVI-HDMI adapter will be recognized as DVI.
theres no adapters is all are cables and theres no problem with the cable dvi to hdmi the icons stays where i left them the issue is with the display with the cable dvi to dvi the icons always appear on the display that is conectect via cable dvi-dvi
yup i got sound through the cable dvi to the hdmi.... but again when i use the display that uses that cable, with the display that uses hdmi to hdmi the icons stays on the display/desktop i leave them... the issue only ocurs when usign the display with the dvi-dvi the icons always appear on that display after reboot power off-on or even after logout-login wich means icons always appear on the display conected with the dvi-dvi cable, its weird but i get used to it by now
As much as you think you would hate it, I think your problem would be solved if you used a dvi to dvi cable instead of the HDMI one, I believe it is throwing a monkey wrench into what you are trying to do. You are going to have to use the output from your video card (until you get a video card with 2 HDMI outputs and 1 mini HDMI output). I think all your outputs should be DVI or HDMI, I think that HDMI cable is throwing your system out of whack. Yes you will have to run audio separate. I know it's a hassle, but try it if you want 3 monitors.
tx for ur advice but ur not reading what im writing.. even using only 2 displays monitor 1 hdmi - hdmi monitor 2 dvi - dvi and the icons always appear on the monitor conected with the dvi-dvi cable so that defeat ur theory of using native cables with no adapters...
