Hi guys.
new here so hello and thanks for letting me in! Please go easy on me for my first post.
I have been searching here and everywhere for answer to my question but its a difficult question to put through a search.
I was going to build my own PC, but instead I purchased a refurb PC and intended to upgrade it as necessary. Not uprgaded anything yet though. Owned the PC for maybe 12 months.
One of the reasons i chose this PC is because it had multiple 'video outs'. It was going to be a business PC so no gaming and nothing too fancy.
When i set up the PC at home, i noticed that the video out from the MOBO wasn't working. however the video from the graphics card was ok.....so i only used 1 monitor for a while.
Now i want to set up my 3 monitors and i can only get 2 to work, but still nothing from the MOBO video out.
MOBO is gigabite ga-h61m-d2-b3
CPU Intel quad core i5-2500 @3.30GHz 3.60GHz
Graphics AMD RADEON HD5770
monitors are samsung syncmaster943
Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
Updated all drivers using device manager - all up to date already.
Cables and monitors have been checked and swapped.
Also should note that i have tried both the blue and the larger white video connectors and no joy on each.
I did have a thought that adding in a video card may make the MOBO video out redundant and inoperative....?
I suspect the MOBO is cactus, but i'd be happy if someone could offer a potential solution?
Happy to add any other specs if it helps identify the issue
Thanks guys
