I just received my ordered DVI-D cable minutes ago and its working now. I guess its either the adapter or the VGA cable that causes it, I still don't know but I'm happy to be using both my monitors now. I'm going full digital (no more using vga cables). Thanks everyone for suggesting ideas, helping when I was in search for solutions.

weird right? hehe. its suppose to be easy or at least fixed right away. Now I'm thinking it might be the monitor or gpu..i might have to borrow 2 extra cables and monitors that would narrow down the problem. I hope someone who experienced the same or has an idea how to fix it would see this. hehe Anyway, if ever I find out what causes it I'll let you guys know. Thanks for sparing time to help.

I actually do that but you see. the other monitor is disabled right? then I enable it by checking the box when I do that that's when the problem starts, both monitors blinking and giving off the sound like the flashdrive being plugged and unplugged..same goes when I try the "windows key + P then choose extend or duplicate" I'm so frustrated right now. cuz I am so used to having 2 monitors multitasking

I see. I edited my original post and made it much easier to understand "monitor-1 and monitor-2 works fine individually." hehe

Update: due to dumb luck stores nearby has no DVI-D cables. So yea, still experiencing the problem. If it was the cable? How come I could use the monitors individually but not together? Is that possible?

I did that too the last time I tried. that's the one with 2 monitors showing indicating monitors 1 and 2 are detected right? and you need to click the checkbox to configure/enable the dual/multi monitor setup. I'm heading out later to buy a dvi-d cable. I was just wondering if cables could cause it and maybe if I had a direct cable like from the old video card. a direct cable VGA to VGA worked, hopefully this DVi-D to DVI-D will do too.

when I tried it, it was up to date but right now I am 2 versions down with the latest one. I can't recall what it was bad I was experiencing something bad with the latest update so I downgraded my driver version. I did try configuring it with nvidia control panel aside from the "right click desktop > screen resolution" or "windows key + p" but same results.

Yes attempting to plug/use both on the video card and whenever I do, the problem happens.

Hi everyone! I have 2 identical monitors with VGA, DVI-D ports and wanting to run it as dual, extended monitor. I have a 1050ti video card bought around November 2018 both using adapter/s (HDMI to VGA, DVI-D to VGA). Dual/Multi monitor should work somehow since it was working on my last video card GT730 although from the last card 1 was a direct VGA to VGA and HDMI to VGA.The problem is whenever I try to use/plug both monitors as dual they go on and off blinking at the same time plus giving off a driver sound like whenever you plug and unplug a flash drive. I once brought my unit in a shop, left my vga cables at home. They used my unit and 2 adapters (HDMI to VGA, DVI-D to VGA) on THEIR monitors and VGA cables and it worked. Could it be that its a simple faulty cable or something else? MONITOR-1, MONITOR-2 works fine individually. Also tried borrowing another monitor with my old same vga cables same problem happens (MONITOR-1 x BORROWED, MONITOR-2 x BORROWED).I tried the ff:~Switching cables~Borrowing a monitor~setting it up by Windows key + P (choosing duplicate/extended)~setting it up by Nvidia control panelSpecs:Mobo: Asus H81M-ECPU : i5-4460RAM : 8gb ramGPU : GTX 1050 TiSSD : 120gbHDD : 1TBOS : Win7 Ultimate 64bitPSU : ATX-800w (generic)Monitor/s : Philips PHL 200V4Q (19.7 inches (50 cm) / 1920 x 1080 pixels @ 56-76 Hz)
