Thanks again for the reply, I have tried making the same resolution for both (1440x900) , the issue persists. I took a picture of the HP monitor w1907 (this is an old monitor manufactured in 2008), at the back, besides the VGA port, there isn't a displayport or mini displayport, there is...

By chance, I pressed the <Menu> button on the HP w1907, somehow, the duplication of laptop screen works on HP monitor, however, there is a new issue, the HP monitor screen now has 3 vertical strips of grey color, 2 on the left half of the monitor, 1 appears near to the right edge of monitor, has...
