Hello, I have a 980TI FTW edition and a LG 24gm77 plugged into the DVI port. Works great.

Now, I plug in a second monitor (old dell something or other) into the mother board via VGA because the graphics card doesn't have a VGA port. My cocmputer doesn't recognize the second monitor at all. I tried Windows settings and Nvidia Control Panel.

Some help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

E: runnin windows 7 on an Asus z170a

"There should be an option in bios to enable discrete graphics
Monitors should never be attached to both. Either all monitors into GPU if using it or all into Motherboard if not using GPU"
Quoted from another topic, with the same question. Look around and you probably will find an answer.
Hope it is already fixed because it has been three days already.

Cheers.
