Windows 10 and multiple monitors

[JoeWallace]

Good morning/afternoon all!

 

We're currently having some issues with several staff PC's across site not picking up a second monitor, only one at a time, updated/downgrade drivers, replaced cables.. you name it, we've tried it.

 

We're currently using Windows 10. v.1607

 

Anybody else come across this issue?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Joe

We've found the generic W10 graphics driver to be pants - better to use one from the graphics card manufacturer. For my ATI Radeon HD2400 Pro there is no W10 driver but the W8 version works just fine.

Same here found W10 graphics drivers to be poor when trying to use multiple monitors so have dug around for alternative drivers in some cases as above used Windows 8 drivers.

On 1703 I've had no problems with the downloaded (newest available) graphics drivers found through Device Manager's update wizard, on 100+ PCs. Are you using splitters or native dual outputs?

I've found it has problems when using cables that switch connection type i.e DVI to HDMI but that could just be cheap cables.

its the drivers you will need to download them as we are running 1607 and some of the driver don't get install from sccm for us
