Windows 10 wont detect display

[SM-G950U]

Hello. have a Quantum Byte mini pc running windows 10. I need help getting my second monitor to connect. I previously had it connected, disconnected it (when the computer fell off my desk) and no more 2 display. it is not a problem with the display.All my drivers are up to date.Please help Thanks

i know this sounds cheezy but
have you tried turning it off and on again

[SM-G950U]

lol yes i have.

[aajjeee]

alright just to get that out of the way.

so try right clicking on the desktop and going to display settings,

there might be 2 screens showing, look bellow for multiple displays and select the one you need (probably extend display)

 

[SM-G950U]

nope just one showing,  BTW i tried detect it didn't work

[aajjeee]

is the one not working in the vga or the hdmi port?

ive had windows only recognise then vga a while ago but i dont remember what i did to make it work

[SM-G950U]

Yes! it is only seeing the vga.

[SM-G950U]

and the hdmi is not working

also i love you profile pic. you watch DONG i see

 

[aajjeee]

hehe yes, but i cant for the life of me remember what i had done to make it work again, im not even sure if i didnt just reinstall.

[SM-G950U]

windows?

 

[aajjeee]

yes, if you dont have a lot on the computer and its easy for you (and nobody else picks up the thread) it might just be easier than troubleshooting this, i reinstall windows once a year anyway so its always fresh.

this is my first  w10  computer does it really fill up that fast? i just got it for Xmas. 

 

[aajjeee]

its not really about filling up, its just good practice, and if its only been 4 months its not necessarily worth it unless you really cant fix your screen problem (protip if you post this again in a few days somebody else will help you, someone with more experience than me)

[SM-G950U]

wow thanks for that

[SM-G950U]

I will try messing with all of it and see.
