Win 10 will not use my 2nd monitor after upgrade from Win 7
Hi all, Eric from Florida here, with my first problem that I can't solve.
First, the soft facts, my system is as follows:
- Windows 10 upgraded from Windows 7 32-bit.
- AMD Catalyst Software Suite v 15.20.1062.1004, which the software update function says is current.
Second, the hard facts
- AMD APU A-10 5700 3.4 gHz w/Radeon 7660D graphics built in.
- ASRock FM2A85X motherboard which supports up to 3 monitors.
- 2.4 GB of usable RAM
- Dual Dell 1905FP monitors (my work is better served without wide screens and they ain't broke), hooked up on DVI and VGA
- I have tried two different VGA cables.
- Yes, it is a home build.
Third, the situation
- Monitors worked fine when running as extended displays under windows 7 (actually never even set that up, it just worked after I hooked up the second monitor)
- I have not been able to get monitor 2 (VGA) to display anything.
- If i unhook monitor 1 (DVI) and reboot then monitor 2 will work, but if i reconnect monitor 2 and reboot neither monitor will work and visa versa.
- AMD catylist will show, under detect display, only 1 monitor, 2 monitors of different sizes, or 2 monitors of the same size.
- Windows devices shows either a Dell 1905FP or a Generic PnP monitor. I can not correlate a cause and effect of why.
Now, the plea for help
- I am fresh out of ideas and think i have tried every combination imaginable and still get the same result (maybe I am just insane?)
- Am I just a victim of conflicting drivers?
- Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!
