Hello,

I have a BenQ GW2750 27" Monitor and an Acer GR235H 23" Passive 3D monitor.

I'm not really planning to use the 3D. The monitor comes with the PC I bought.

Anyway, I have a XFX 7950 GPU with 3 ports: HDMI and 2 miniDP.

I wanted to connect use the BenQ as primary and Acer as secondary monitors. However, when I plug in the BenQ through HDMI and Acer into the miniDP using a HDMI-miniDP converter, only the BenQ works. I switched it the other way around, only the Acer works. Seems like whichever uses the HDMI port works only.

Help me please how do I get both monitor to show.

Tried clicking lots of things. Couldn't get it to work. Both monitors are detected but somehow whichever monitor using the miniDP says no signal or cable not connected.

I used this converter in particular http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290826205217?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649] and then connected using the normal HDMI cable to the monitor. Could that be the problem?
