OK, so here's the deal. I have a Radeon R9 200 series video card. Earlier last year I had two monitors, an LG flattron and an HP (Forgot which model).
They worked as dual displays. The HP already had the DVI-D dual link cable on both ends (no adapter needed) and my LG had a VGA to DVI-I adapter. However, during my move, one of my monitors broke, and I was left with a single solitary display, my LG.
Now I bought two monitors, an LG and an acer (I totally forgot the model even if I bought them literally last week. The were on clearance sale) and I simply cannot get them to work. I tried them individually, they're fine. I think something is wrong with my DVI-D dual link port... because even if I plug the monitor into it alone, it just doesn't recognize. I tried a DVI-I for one and an HDMI for the other, and I got nothing. I tried the DVI-D port with both a VGA to DVI and an HDMI to DVI and it still did not function at all.
I really want them to work together. Any ideas? They worked before.
