SYST INFO:
Asus M4 A89 GTD Pro/USB3 MOBO w/int Video;
AMD 1055T 2.8Ghz 6-core CPU;
Win7 Pro 64bit; 12GB RAM;
EVGA GeForce 9500 GT 512K Dual Head;
(https://www.evga.com/products/specs/gpu.aspx?pn=DCAA3F3D-1396-49C6-AECA-174272B8B321)
(2) Asus VW224 Monitors;
(1) Gateway FPD1985 monitor. (has both DVI and VGA, using VGA w/an adapter to DVI - dont ask me which kind)
I was 55yrs old when I started this, now Im 58, and its still not fixed.
Main Dual Monitor Issue:
The Closest I can come to having dual monitors is when I plug in the 2nd monitor into the video card (in either port on the video card)
BOTH monitors will display for just a second or two - and then they BOTH go out and I can get NO video till I unplug one of the monitors from the card and then the display will come back up ** IF ** ...
The ONLY way I can seem to get any video to stay up is to use the Gateway monitor with a VGA Cable. Then at the Video Card, connect an adapter to covert it to DVI THRU the VGA CABLE and then plug that adapter into the 9500GT card (either video port).
I can move that config to the 2nd port on the video card and it will work, BUT ... if I try to utilize the 2nd port on the card, (keep in mind I get video if Im plugged in either, or ... but NO VIDEO IN EITHER if I plug either of the other two monitors. Whether VGA or DVI.
BOTH MY SCREENS GO Blank!
Can someone (in just plain english tell me this. -
a) do my Asus Monitors require drivers to work properly?
b) What is the correct order to do this in?
NOTE: The ONLY way I found to get ANY video up was to start with the internal Video.
Install the 9500 on the MOBO
Fire it up -
Device MGR - Locate new devices. (found GT 9500 Card)
(although I can not find ANY drivers for this online)
Can anyone please give me a suggestion HTF I can get both (would actually like to set up with 4 monitors) Don't really need HDMI, but its obviously nice to have at least on one of the monitors.
Ive messed with this for over 2 yrs now. Enuf is enuf.
HELP! <smile>
