Can't connect two monitors to my pc, solutions?

[oceiros]

Hey,
I'm trying to set up dual monitors with two monitors,both AOC, not sure of the exact models. The first of these, i'll call it No.1, has a DVI port and a VGA port. The second, No.2, has a VGA and a HDMI port. I'm trying to connect both of these to my MSI GTX 1050 (will leave a link below to the amazon page),which has a DVI-D, a HDMI and a DP port. I have tried connecting No.1 via the DVI port and connecting No.2 via HDMI and via a VGA to HDMI adapter. All three methods work in connecting the monitors seperately, so they work one at a time, but when plugged in simultaneously, the display only appears on No.1, and I cannot detect No.2 via the detect function in display settings.

Do you have an active HDMI to VGA adapter? If not, you need one then.

Make sure the monitor is outputting the correct input.
Have you tried a direct HDMI to HDMI cable instead?

I did try with the direct HDMI to HDMI. It worked when connecting Monitor 2 seperately but not when i also had Monitor 1 connected via DVI.
