Question How to dual monitors with HDMI and DisplayPort on GTX 1050ti?

[LunaLovegood]

First time posting, so i apologize if theres any mistakes if there is.

I have a GTX 1050Ti 4GB Windforce OC with 3 output : HDMI, DisplayPort, and DVI. I connect first monitor to graphic card through a HDMI to HDMI cable, and the second through DP to DP cable.

When I turn the PC on, there is only first monitor show up, the second monitor said that "No DP signal from your device".

I tried plugg the dongle of logitech mouse into second monitor and curious, the mouse work fine.

I have no idea why DisplayPort not working. How to make both monitors work?

Thanks for your attention.

More specific infor: When I access bios, the second monitor show up (maybe DisplayPort is priority) but when I boot into windows, only the monitor with HDMI cable work, the other said "no DP signal"

I video my problem in this video, you may not care about the sound. In this video, left monitor is connected through HDMI, and right monitor is connected through DP cable. Here is post-install windows, I only plug the DP cable, then I restart my PC and plug the HDMI cable, problem occur

Every graphics card will have a priority as to which port will be used to display a boot bios image. That can not be changed.

Once in windows, right click on the desktop to access display settings.
Your active display will be in dark blue and the other will be greyed out.
Clicking on identify will tell you which is which.
You can individually set the resolution and other parameters.
Most likely, you will want to pick "extend these displays".
You can drag the images around to match the physical location of the displays.
This is important for extending the displays.

If you see only one, try clicking on the detect button.

if no joy, disconnect one display and verify that just one is detected ok.
Then the other.
Some monitors with multiple inputs will not automatically detect the connection and you must use the display on screen controls to select the proper input.

I found out that monitor with DP doesn't work well even individual. When I connect only one with DP cable, only work when access to bios, said "No DP signal" when boot to windows

What he said ^ with one exception, the controls may not "on screen", you may have to push buttons on your monitor to find the input setting and change it.

I had a 1050TI with 3 monitors no issues. Check your display settings and cables.

Be sure monitor is setup correctly most of the time "Auto" works.
