Hello,

I'm currently running a dual screen set up but got a new screen and trying to do triple.

I got.. (Screen --> GPU)
Acer S230HL - VGA -> DVI
LG LW222WT- DVI > HDMI
LG E2251 - HDMI > Display Port

I plugged in my LG E2251, and my computer doesn't detect it. I bought an adapter to switch my HDMI to display port but It isn't working. My graphics card is the MSI 980TI.

**Update**
I tried using the Active DisplayPort to HDMI on my LG LW222WT and the screen isn't detected.

Thanks!

Do you have the respective Owner's Manual for your LG's and the Acer?

For example:

http://www.lg.com/us/support-product/lg-E2251T-BN

(Not sure about the model match per se ....)

Anyway, the Note box on Page 12 mentions "If you use HDMI PC, it can cause compatibility problem."

See if you can verify that the desired setup is even viable.

Likewise, carefully test various combinations to see what does work. May screen out a faulty cable or adapter as well.
