Second monitor does not work when plugged into the graphics card or main motherboard

HDJoey

Hello, I am new here as I am looking for some help, I bought a computer recently here are the specs:

Core i3 9100f quad core

Asus Prime H310M-R r2.0 (which has on board graphics)

Pilat gtx 970 gpu

8gb DDR4 Viper at 2133mhz

OCZ X-Stream 550w psu

120gb Kingston SSD

1TB WD Blue HDD

 

I have 2 monitors:

MSI optix g241vc 24inch 75hz (main monitor)

Celcus TV 23inch 60hz (second display)

 

I am having a problem where if I where to plug in my second monitor to my graphics card, does not show up nor detect it.. my main monitor is working fine but I have tried so many different things, I have tried hdmi. I have tried to switch to vga nothing happened, I have switched to adaptors because my graphics card has a mini hdmi I have tried a hdmi to mini hdmi adaptor, the monitor was detected but nothing was displaying even though I had the right input selected, I've tried researching, so enabling multi monitor in the bios, I tried that but that option does not exist on my bios, I've tried installing drivers, but the thing is, I select my operating system and what bit version which is windows 10 64 bit right, I go and install the driver and it comes in a 32 bit install so I can't install it because it does not meet the requirements, so I emailed asus to see what's the problem, they said that they don't make the motherboard. So I'm stuffed, the only thing that I can think of is buying a hdmi to a mini display port as the graphics card has 3 of them, if anyone can help me, would be appreciated.

Just an update, I feel stupid for this... I tried to use the HDMI to mini HDMI again because I got close with that one, I tried again and I plugged the mini HDMI in first into the graphics card then plugged in the normal HDMI in and somehow it works, so no need for replies.:)
