Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14291 for PC and Mobile Insider
-
Not in the retail stores themselves just like you won't find everything in a Staples either but may find them on the web. http://www.walmart.com/c/kp/desk-monitor-stands
I think you will find that with one look there's an endless number of styles and types out there to choose from. How about Quad or Quindruplet monitors? The pair I got here went for under $20 at the time and actually were in stock when having to go back for the second when replacing the single BenQ with it's own tall base stand and then adding on the second lcd. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Allsop-270...-Stand/7696362

Both screens are active, Cousin. My onboard video will only do DVI and RGB; however, the Samsung S24D300 is HDMI and RGB while the Acer is DVI and RGB. Which means the cable that came with the Samsung will work with DVI and I'm left with RGB for the Acer. As soon as I can, I'll get a DVI/HDMI video card so I can get better resolution, but this Samsung (main monitor) is quite nice.
I just checked and no new builds today; probably not until next week, but I have seen them drop on Friday before. When I start the computer in the AM, I always check TenForums Windows 10 News to see if anything's kickin'. Then I leave during the day to run an errand and when I get home, everyone but me has a new build. :)
Odd that your mainboard doesn't have an HDMI port for your APU if it's the newer than both of mine HP P7 PC in your spec...... my Sandy Bridge i7 HP P7 CTO was like that also (like this one ) with an AMD CPU and mainboard GPU even though the SB i7 IGPU supports HDMI in addition to DVI-D and VGA.
I'm presuming you're on board GPU output is VGA and DVI-D and that RGB mention was a senior moment if you are old enough like me
You may know RGB is is an additive color model not a connection and you probably know DVI-D to HDMI is a 1:1 video connection outside of HDCP 2.2 which is not happening on PC content outside of a D/L or advanced format Red or similar video camera anyway.
Putting in an inexpensive fanless HD 6450 PCIe d/GPU gave me HDMI + DVI -D and an unused VGA so it's all better now.You can get w/fan also it upscales 320p + You Tube , 480x DVD or DVD rips or 720p video/iptv to 1080P - HDMI/DVI-D very well also . it's good for
( up to ) up to 2560P @ 4:4:4 video levels or full RGB ) but no HDCP 2.2 or advanced formats just don't try any gaming much beyond Solitaire or Candy Crush Soda on it 
looks better than VGA also you don't have to many AD/DA/RGB and video level /black indexing conversions going on to a digital display like you do with VGA .
VGA is always converted to digital in the display for the LCD panel so you .u probably know VGA was for scanning electron beam CRT's
( Glass picture tubes )
Both the 27" 2560p monitor and 4160p (4K ) TV in here are new since then.
FWIW outside of video/photo editing or content color grading and HDR or WCG and some PC or console slave gaming RGB limited 16-235 additive color or 4:2:0 video levels settings in your GPU controls or Windows are preferred for better black level indexing and white clipping and less pixel manipulation.
What you usually have is RGB limited additive color and or 4:2:0 video levels on a PC and on the web including 1080p Blue Ray/DVD,iptv & 1080p HD SDR Netflix etc. outside of outside of the more advanced video formats and photography grading/editing or some gaming .
YCbCr 4:2:0 video levels .sometimes looks better on all that than RGB limited or RGB full on *some displays anyway outside of the more advanced video formats ,gaming & photography above and your black indexing will obviously be better .

Mike posted no problems with three monitor setup...
So, it looks like only two monitor setup is affected with Snipping tool problems?
I should get the third one, but don't really have enough place, or need - since this is my home setup.:)
with 2 screens a 27" and one being 4K @55" it's safe to say I won't be bringing another screen in here for all that
I have a small electronic HDMI switch and another HDMI cable I'm not using that can happen if a new build /remedy doesn't come in soon the d/GPU won't see a signal or EDID on the other side on another switch position but I can get pretty much anthing outside of TV I need in the Andoid TV or Roku for bigger screen video anyway and movies /videos on spinning metal here go straight to Kodi for Andoid TV in the TV anyway and it has built in Chromecast anyway .

That's good, but they're not available at our Walmart. I could buy them online, but I would have to wait for them to arrive. My stands cost me approximately $15.00 for both and they're custom built so the reading angle is just right. :) Also, I have space for installing drawers beneath each one, which I will do in the very near future.
for anybody in need of it :
Monoprice has some nice adjustable monitor stands and desktop monitor risers .
HDMI Cable, Home Theater Accessories, HDMI Products, Cables, Adapters, Video/Audio Switch, Networking, USB, Firewire, Printer Toner, and more! - Monoprice.com
As it worked out the exec. office desk and 27"screen in here only needed a very low riser in here maybe 2" I was able to work in something that looks real nice . It puts the top of the PC monitor ~ at eye level like it's supposed to be or ..........truthfully slightly above that to my preference 
The 55" Sony 4K TV in here is on an articulating wall mount above the adjacent wide bookcase that's just slightly higher than the Desk so it all looks proportional and the *correct color temp* 65K LED ambient LED back lights behind the screens are nice at nite or daytime with window blinds and drapes closed which only happens if I'm watching certain movies worth all that in the day or whenever at summer evening and sun still up & movies , this window @ 90 degrees faces the setting sun and the river and the rest of the glass is directly behind .

Same here! I have to suspect the source of the problem has nothing to do with how many monitors you have but a faulty upgrade from the last build into this one where upgrade type install can often be found to be buggy! But this is how MS is doing things by the way of the WU not seeing separate iso downloads for each new build that comes as in past years. Upgrade by Update is still rather new and apparently still needs to see some bugs worked out of that as well.

Nope, no faulty upgrade here. This is a clean install. I'd guess that Edwin also has a clean install, but not sure.

BTW, guys, you're not going to convince me that I need to buy a riser for my monitors when I can build one exactly the way I want it for far less money. :)

No no I wasn't thinking you needed new risers or a stand and all that ..... I just posted all that for anybody and maybe because I ain't got nothing better to do until I go up into the TV apps in the Sony or the electronic Grace Notes program guide in there or Kodi ,Dish TV ,Roku etc.,etc ........ or clean out my e mail & draft some replies .
