Hey guys,
A friend of mine is having an issue with his computer detecting a second monitor that he doesn't currently (and never has) had plugged in. Obviously, the problem is that when he moves his mouse to the right of his screen, he's losing it entirely (to the second monitor I assume.)
I personally use three monitors myself, so I know how to go about setting them up and removing them, but the typical troubleshooting isn't working for him.
The two second monitors that are being detected are called, "GeForce GT 545" and his integrated graphics. He did recently install the Geforce and that's when the issue arose.
I had him go into device manager, and the computer is still listing his Integrated graphics as a GPU along with his GeForce.
I'm wondering if I should just have him disable the integrated under device manager and see if that fixes the problem, but I don't want to be hasty.
Thanks in advance for any help!
