Help!!! I have 2 monitors - 1 connected via hdmi and 1 connected via vga to dvi cable(2nd monitor). The 2nd monitor displays the BIOS on boot but never detected on Windows. I already tried the solutions in the attached photo below provided by @pathos3727 on another forum post, but nothing worked. The only thing I haven't tried yet is uninstalling the graphics drivers via ddu and reinstalling and I'm kinda hesitating to do that because I don't have integrated graphics and I'm new to computers so yeah...

P.S. GPU is GALAX 1050 TI OC (Factory OC)

Does the problem exist since the beginning or has it changed?
Are current gpu drivers installed?

Make a rightclick on free space on your desktop. You can access display settings from there. You can see if the display shows up there.

The problem started occuring just a month ago. At first it wasn't as bad as today. I only removed the connection on the 1st monitor and the 2nd monitor comes back then reconnect the 1st monitor. I have the latest gpu drivers. The monitor isn't detected in display settings. Btw thanks for replying
