I’ve got a problem with my display. Recently I installed a game, when I opened the game the problem began. It kept posting ‘input not supported’.
So I plugged in another monitor since I couldn’t see or do anything. This other monitor is the exact same model as the one mentioned above. Through the other monitor I realised that the game had booted in 1920 x 1080 settings (my monitor cannot support this resolution). So because of this, I realised why the screen kept saying ‘input not supported’.
Here’s the problem, Windows can only work on one monitor when I Extend both Displays or Duplicate Displays under Display settings. It does not work independently. Meaning I can’t Show only on 2 (which is what my graphics card is plugged into). I tried updating my drivers, but each time I do that, it goes back to ‘input not supported’. Meaning I’m stuck with my mouse cursor going missing if I go over to the edges of the screen because windows thinks I’m trying to reach a display that’s not even plugged in. I tried uninstalling my graphics drivers, installing latest display drivers, going into safe mode and changing the resolution settings for monitors. All lead back to me having the need to extend display or duplicate.
One last thing, cpu is capable of outputting 1920 x 1080 resolution. Monitor is incapable of doing this. I read somewhere that games tend to think that the highest resolution possible is set to default sometimes.
Is there a fix to this? I believe I covered most of the stuff here. If there’s anything I missed out please ask me. I need to get this fixed. Thanks a million.
