Dual monitor problems (Off Topic) - Sgtbender2000 - 10-31-2014
So I've been trying for months now to get dual monitors. I've bought adapters and even a new Geforce GTX 650Ti graphics card so I can run dual monitors, but have had no results. Each monitor works perfectly on it's own, but plug both in and restart and they both go black screen on start up.
These are the two monitors:

I've done commands like Windows + P and hit extend, but it still is black. I've gone in Nvidia Control Panel and tried to detect the second monitor, but it only recognizes the main one. I've gone into Screen Resolution and tried to detect it there also, but it just won't detect!

Install your GPU drivers again, what inputs are you using for your monitors to GPU?
I see they both use VGA use the DVI and HDMI inputs. If that don't work then I don't know what's wrong.

I have 2 VGA monitors going into DV-I and DV-H.

Might be easier if you just plug one into HDMI (main) then your secondary into VGI, then you'll be able to use both.
