My 32 inch Vizio TV stopped working as a monitor after I got the new 32 inch Samsung Odyssey G5 1000R curved gaming monitor
So my setup until yesterday was
The problem is that only the G5 and HP shows my desktop. The TV no longer shows anything. It says - "Retrieving Data" and then it says "Not supported". I'm guessing that the new G5 is doing something which is messing with the TV but not sure what. I can see the 3 monitor setup in the Display settings and my cursor also moves to the left (where the Vizio TV is), so it seems like the TV is still working as a monitor but I can only see a black screen.
I'm yet to try connecting other types of cables with the TV, but wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions.
