Duel Monitor Issues

Hi I'm new to the forums.
My company just bought a Lanovo 3000 J110 from tigerdirect, and I am trying to install an extra videocard to the PCI-e slot. Its a NVIDEA GeForce7 NX7300LE. It was the cheapest I could find locally on short notice.
Every time I put in the videocard (or a very old PCI video I finally found on the shelves), I keep getting beeping noises. I replaced the standard 250W PSU with a 380W I found also at work. I still get the same problem. I've checked the bios, video setup to the following:
Select Active Vide: Automatic
DVMT 4.0 Mode: Auto
originally this was setup for the onboard video card.
I can't seem to figure out why this is not working, tested the motherboard, works fine (I have a few PCI ethernet cards lying around, popped those in got no problems.) The beeping happens even on the old video card (has no 3d acceleration) still. PSU is perfectly fine, boots up windows perfectly so I know its not that either. Been looking around boards all day trying to find a fix.
The machine runs perfectly fine, upgraded the 512 MB by adding a 1GB RAM, runs XP Pro smoothly. I just need duel monitor for a bunch of applications I have to keep up and running and monitoring for most of the day.
Any suggestions to correct this problem?

Yep its installed in the correct slot (#17), checked the guide and it was installed correctly.
Was looking over the specs of the NX7300LE TD256EH and can't find anything saying PCI-e x16, it just says PCI-e certified. After doing some more scrounging around (basically google searches). I have located a few things saying this card is a PCI-e x16 card. The following link is the same make and model of the graphics card I have. The Interface Information is near the bottom of the page.
http://www.cuttingedgecomputers.ca/shopexd.asp?id=2318
Interface
PCI-E 16X
VGA, DVI-I, S-Video/RCA
Before I left work last nite, I figured it would be that the 380W powersupply was just not big enough, so I found a 480W and slapped that in. Still the beep warning and not booting up windows (or anything on the screen at all).

However, ever time i put it in full screen mode it blackens my laptop screen
how do i stop this from happening

I've tried moving the menu bar to the monitor...didnt work
ive tried playing the video on my mac but it just blackens the monitor
What do you mean by the adaptor - i have what ever software etc that came with the mac...and then from apple i bought the mini display port to VGA adaptor...the monitor is a new LG W2261 Full HD...currently i am connect via the blue VGA cable
it works if im playing games full screen...i just have to move the menu bar in the arrangement option...but it doesnt work for videos
i havent tried another monitor cos i dont have one - but i did try another account and its the same effect
surely it should be simple - what if i was to do a powerpoint presentation connect to a TV or projector, normally you can see your screen for the separate controls which the other displays the presentation

How to display a duel monitor in my Macbook pro?

Hi recently I brought a 22 inch LCD monitor I would to make a duel monitor with my laptop how do I do that cause i have try out many way but still not display out. Please help.. Thanks in both window and OS

I set mine up in OSX and it works fine in Windoz - both under Parallels and with CrossOver.
Don't understand why yours doesn't work - unless you are using dual boot. If so have you gone into Windoz Control Panel and set up the monitor or installed the driver that came with the monitor. Windows now says that drivers aren't needed but many manufacturers include them as they do most of the work for you.
Hope this is of some help.

Trouble with color on Presario, No red tones on display. Not a monitor issue.

Am experiencing trouble with color on Presario, model no. CQ5500F. Purchased a couple of years ago, and trouble was present immediately. Am getting no red tones - red items appear black or sometimes blue. Was told by HP that it was a monitor issue, and let computer slide out of warranty. installed new monitor today and problem still exists. Is this merely a display adjustment of some kind? Or will I have to pay HP their $99 for a one time fix? Any suggestions appreciated.

Hello UncleBob62,
It could be the display driver that is not properly working
1. Click on the start icon
2. Right click on computer and go to properties
3. Select Device Manager
4. Expand display adapters and right click on the video card driver and uninstall
The computer screen will go blank
On the keyboard press the windows key the right arrow key twice and then the letter R.
At this point your computer is going to reboot. After the reboot Windows will install generic drivers for your video card. Do you still see a lack of red tones?

Multiple Monitor Issue

Alright, so I have a 15" Macbook Pro with the dual graphics cards (GeForce 9600M GT and GeForce 9400M GT 256 version). It's the 2.66 intel processor one. Anyway, I've been trying to figure out this dual monitor issue that I've been having for a few days now. When I'm using the 9400M card and I plug into my mini displayport everything works just fine. This includes the VGA cord, the HDMI, as well as a standard Apple monitor. Now, when I switch over to the higher end graphics card, as soon as I plug into the mini displayport my screen goes black. And that's it. I can't do anything. I have to hold the power button down until the computer turns off.
I've been searching for days in order to find an answer to this question or if anyone has ever had a similar problem and no one could help me. I even went to the genius bar and no one could help either. Keep in mind I've tried this in a variety of ways. I've plugged the monitor in after the computer was running, I've had it plugged in while the computer was turning on, and each time after the initial boot up everything goes black.
To make matters worse, I originally came across this issue because I use Windows 7 on bootcamp and I wanted to use dual monitors within Windows. Bootcamp is only set to use the 9600M graphics card which is the one giving me all the heartache and apparently there's no way around it. If anyone has the slightest clue as to what's going on here or why it would be doing such a thing, let me know. Thanks.

Jon: Thanks for answering those questions. Run the Apple Hardware Test that you'll find on one of the DVDs that came with your MBP. If any errors are reported, go back to the Genius Bar with the error codes reported by AHT and ask to have the machine repaired.
If you have extended AppleCare protection, you have a TechTool Deluxe CD/DVD. You can also use that to test your hardware. If it reports any errors, take the exact wording and error codes from that report along with you to the GB, too.
The problem is not with your three external displays or your cables, adapters, or your MBP's mini-Displayport, because they all work fine with the 9400M. The problem isn't some wrong contact that's being made momentarily as you insert the mini-Displayport plug into the port, because it occurs even when the cable is securely connected before starting up the computer. It seems to me the problem must reside either in your 9600M GT or in its connection to the mini-displayport.

Graphics card issue or monitor issue?

Hello, i have a MacPro 2.66 w/ an ATI x1900 and a MacBookPro with th nVidia 8600
i recently purchased a 28" Hanns-g Display which i upgraded from my 20" apple cinema display, im curious if this could be a graphic issue or a monitor issue:
When i connect the 28" monitor to my ATI card (port 1) and boot into 10.4.10 (macPro) i noticed diagonal lines that seem to "scroll" (like an overscan line or something) on greyish and lighter backgrounds.
tried it with the second port, same thing, it does it on all resolutions
(it runs @ 1920x1200).
when i boot into XP and try the same sites i did in 10.4.10 it doesnt do it at all, its as it should.
I tried both VGA>DVI and HDMI>DVI to the ATI on OSX but it only does it with the HDMI>DVI connection under OSX, VGA looks fine.
(btw my ati card is clean as a whistle, no dust or anything)
However if i plug it into my MacBookPRo with hdmi>DVI it doesnt do that at all.
so im wondering probably incompatible monitor or what?
im looking to getting a 30" Apple Display but not if its gonna act up like that on my macpro, none of this appeared on my ACD 20".
any suggestions or tips?
thanks!

im not experiencing scan line son my 30" ACD display under OSX or XP with my ATI, could be the monitor you are using, but if its not doing it with your MBP than.....idk
sonds strange, try another gfx card or another macpro if possible.

How to adjust hot corners for duel monitors?

Anyone know how to adjust the hot corners so that I can use all 4 corners of my primary monitor and not my second?
Right now I have to move the cursor all the way across both monitors to the bottom right corner on my second monitor to activate it. In Lion I believe they had a duel monitor adjustment to fix this problem.
Any ideas in Mountain Lion?

Actually, on top of that, is there also a way to make the menu bar appear on both screens? Having a window in a different monitor from the menu bar is a bit inefficient.

Does Yosemite support mac pro duel monitors?

Does Yosemite on early 2008 mac pro support duel monitors to the extent to make one desk top?

as long as that box is checked, each display is independent.
If you want the original "Extended Desktop":
Uncheck the box
close the preference pane or switch to another and save changes.

Duel Monitors Mac Mini

I am getting a mac mini and want to hook up duel monitors on it. Each monitor has a single VGA, DVI, and HDMI port. For the first one I will use the HDMI to DVI adapter and for the second I would like to use the MiniDisplay(AKA thunderbolt) to DVI adapter. I heard some people saying it wont work for a second monitor because its passive and not active and stuff like that. How true is that?

FYI: It's, "dual," not, "duel."
A "duel" is something 2 people do with pistols.

Playing off the Timeline via firewire( XdCam pal) Monitoring Issues

Hey,
I have just switched to FCP and have found that when recording the from the FCP timeline manually via firewire into a Sony XDCam PDW530 I experience 4:3 flashes in the Camera monitor and viewfinder as the timeline plays down Video Transitions. All effects have been rendered (Blue line above transition)
However the Camera appears to record correctly to disc. I played the recorded material from the camera via an XD deck into a wide screen monitor and all appears fine the 4:3 flashes are not present on transitions. play the disc back in the camera and the 4:3 flashes for the duration of the Video Transitions return????
when playing out of the Camera via SDI and Analogue Composite outputs into a wide screen monitor all appears ok as well.
It's a little odd that you cannot monitor the output correctly on the XDcam. If i change the pull down settings from 2323 to 2332 it monitors the transitions correctly but the video aspect is somewhere between 4:3 and 16:9.
Shoot in 16:9 Capture DV Pal, Edit DV Pal, Playback Output Apple FireWire Pal (720 x 576)
Any ideas????

Thanks Shane,
We have been down the PRINT TO VIDEO road with the same playback issues in the XD Camera's LCD screen. We still see the 4:3 transition on the 16:9 image when playing off the timeline / playing back the recorded media in the camera and viewing on cameras screen .
I guess this is only a monitor issue. If you don't include any video effects it plays down 16:9 perfectly in the cameras monitor
What is recorded onto the disc is fine.
Also my understanding is the what's coming off the timeline is a DV stream so not sure how the GOP format comes into play. Recording onto a XD Cam off the timeline thru other edit programmes has never been an issue. I have come from Avid Pinnacle and the monitoring of transitions was never an issue when streaming back to the xdcam.
Thanks

Dell Tablet Dock FW Update 0.41.23, A03 with Dell Venue 11 Pro (7130/7139) - monitors issue

Hello,
I have Dell Venue 11 Pro (7130/7139).
I have installed “Dell Tablet Dock FW Update 0.41.23, A03” http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=97N0V (previous version was Version 0.41.19, A02). Installation completed successfully, but my monitors (connected though DP and HDMI) disappeared after installation (system do not see any monitor connected trough Dell Tablet Dock).
I have restarted system, disconnected / reconnected power from “Dell Tablet Dock” – nothing helped.
I tried to revert to previous version 0.41.19, A02, but the installation process requires monitors to be connected to “Dell Tablet Dock”. But they are connected, system simply do not see them!
Could you help me with this issue or with advice, hot to force previous version 0.41.19, A02 installation (to ignore monitor connection check)?
Thanks,
Aleksandrs

Hi,
I had almost the same problem. I used Dell Venue 11 Pro (7130/7139) with Dock and NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX through HDMI-DVi cable. There were no probs while tablet was on, however when it was sleeping or off the NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX permanently (each 2-3 seconds) showed the sign that there were no input signal. It was not critical for me, however it was one more my disappointment in Dell new products (I have used Dell latitude D620 and dock for 7 years without any problems, thats why I chose Dell Venue 11 Pro, assuming that the Dell quality remains the same... I was wrong, Dell Venue 11 Pro has too much loose ends).
Yesterday I updated Dock firmware to “Dell Tablet Dock FW Update 0.41.23, A03” and Dell lost NEC. I.e. the monitor was connected, but the tablet just did not want to see it or recognise. I connected dock to another monitor Samsung SyncMaster 226CW (took from my friend) through the same HDMI-DVI cable and found that it is working with it. So I decided to downgrade the Dock firmware to 0.41.19, A02 (the only previous version I found at dell support), however it was impossible with my NEC, as tablet didn't see it. I connected again the tablet to Samsung SyncMaster 226CW which was recognised through the dock and successfully downgraded the firmware to 0.41.19, A02. Afterwards connected my old NEC MultiSync LCD 1770 NX and fortunately it was found by my Dell tablet and dock. Now it's working.

Mid 2013 Macbook Air External Monitor Issues

I am running on 10.8.4 and am using a fully upgraded 2013 macbook air. i7, 8gb of ram, 512 ssd. Recently, I have been having issues connecting my computer to external displays. I have reset the PRAM, and the SMC multiple time with no luck. I have also deleted the windowserver plist files and that did not seem to do anything as well. The issue is as follows: when I plug in my laptop through the thunderbold port to the hdmi on my tv, the screen on my laptop goes blue, as normal, but then nothing shows up on my tv. I have used the same cable with my roomates macbook and it works just fine, on multiple tv's. Mine is not able to connect to any of those tv's. When looking at the display settings in system preferences, I do not see that it ahs detected any external displays. I am not sure what to do at this point.

I think I have fixed it somehow. I reset the PRAM while the tv was plugged in and it worked, but it seems that something may be wrong with my video card, because there was a bunch of fuzziness and weird colors on my computer's monitor for a few seconds before everything went to normal

Windows 7 and Multiple Monitor Issues

Alright, I have spent the past 3 days searching these forums as well as on Microsoft's support pages and all of Google to find the answer to my issue and it seems as though I'm the only one who is running into this problem.
I have a 15 inch Macbook Pro with the GeForce 9600M GT Nvidia Graphics card with the latest version of Mac OSX and Bootcamp installed on it. I have Windows 7 installed in bootcamp. I just purchased a Mini DisplayPort to VGA cord with a VGA cord so as to connect my computer to my Sony Bravia HDTV to use as a second monitor. I plug in the cords, plug them into my TV, and put it into the proper input and it works like a charm. Then I go and boot up in bootcamp under Windows 7, plug in the cord, and my screen gets to the "starting windows" logo and then it goes black. I push ever button, I try control alt delete, nothing. I have to hold down the power button to turn off the computer and then turn it back on.
I turn it on, boot up into Windows 7, let it load, then plug in the cord, and the computer display instantly goes black, again, and yet nothing displays on the TV. Again, I try everything to no avail, so I power it off and back on. I go through this at least 10 times to no avail. I finally give up and try again the next day.
Next day, I plug it in, and the monitor stays up, but yet nothing is displayed on the TV. I go to my resolution settings in Windows, and go to the multiple monitors tab, and select every possible option (extend, duplicate, etc) and nothing will display on my TV. I try to change the settings to which it responds with "unable to save display settings" and nothing changes. I attempt to enter the nvidia program and make changes that way. The TV is detected, but when I select it and attempt to apply anything, no changes take effect and I am left with only the laptop display. Keep in mind I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the video drivers and such.
Finally I get fed up so I purchase a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapted and a DVI to HDMI adapter. I try again. Again in OSX it launches immediately, no problems. I go back into Windows, and immediately I'm dealing with the instant black screen.
I'm going crazy over here trying to figure this out. I know it's possible to do this because I've seen people on youtube doing this and again it works on OSX so why the heck won't it work? If anyone has any idea what's going on here please help me out. Thanks.

JonMarx... I'm having the exact same problem. I'm in the exact same situation as you are. I'm going mad, and it's only by divine providence that I've finally located the only other person who knows what I've been going through. I've spent at least 20 hours trying to get this started back up, to no avail.
I had the secondary display working peachy for a while, long enough to configure everything to be exactly how I wanted it. I unplugged the monitor from the computer just to see what would happen, and that's when the problems started. I managed to get it to work one last time for a brief period a few hours later, but the way it just clicked on made it feel too good to be true.
I've had a wierd problem with a phantom display as well. The display will frequently show up as being available in both the nVIDIA panel and the windows settings, but if I apply the settings, they won't go through. I got a few screenshots of it the last time it happened.
I was just about to reinstall windows completely, but it seems that I'll just run into the same problem again if I do... Here's to hoping a solution is found.

Dual monitor issue with 10.8 and Windows 7 (bootcamp)

I've a read a lot of threads here about people having nightmare-ish problems after upgrading. Thankfully, this isn't one of them, just a frustration that I'd like advice on.
My system: 2010 13" MBP, 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8GB RAM, 320GB HD. Work setup has external 17" Dell Widescreen monitor connected with VGA to miniDisplay adapter. Home theater setup has 23" Dell monitor connected with HDMI to miniDisplay cable.
I upgraded from 10.6.8 to 10.8, as I like to stay up to date and it seemed ML fixed many of the Lion issues. After finding out Front Row is completely gone I just about reverted (my laptop doubles as my home theater control). I found XBMC, and it works, sort of (anyone with news on whether Front Row will be returned to us, let me know!).
Enough babbling, my issue:
When I switch from bootcamp windows 7 back to OS X, my second monitor's resolution is all screwed up (very low) and the dock and menu bar are BOTH on the second (Dell 17") screen, though it's not in a mirror mode.
Usually the dock is on the laptop screen, and the menu bar is on the second.
All I have to do is unplug the miniDisplay port and plug it back in, but is there a setting I'm missing to keep me from having to do this? Also, I've never used Windows at home, so I've never had to switch with the 23 inch monitor connected. Don't really want to try as that system is working quite well right now.
Thanks!
-Rob

It's NVidia GeForce 320M.
Just checked the drivers page and the Mac side only lists up to 10.6.8
Should I assume that the update needs to be on the Windows 7 side? At one point last November I tried to update on the Windows side and it caused all sorts of **** on my system causing me to have to reinstall both OS X and 7.
May be worth another try?

IDOC Monitoring issue - job BPM_DATA_COLLECTION* not running.

Hi all,
We are facing an issue with BPM "IDOC Monitoring" (under application monitoring), which we have setup to monitor Inbound and Outbound Idocs in 2 separate R/3 systems.
In one system it works fine, and measured values are returned each time the monitor is set to run according to the specified schedule.
However, for another R/3 system, the monitor has never run, even though the settings are identical in the monitoring setup.
From reading the Interfaces Monitoring Setup guide, I found that this monitor depends on a job called BPM_DATA_COLLECTION* which runs in the monitored system. In the system where monitoring is functioning correctly, I can see this job is completing successfully at the time the monitor is set to run. All I find is completed jobs - no scheduled or released jobs present.
However, for the system where the monitoring is not functioning, I found that this job is not running, but that the job is sitting in scheduled status instead.
When I tested manually running the job in this system, it ran successfully, and in Solution Manager the monitor brought back the measured value, so the monitor only ran successfully when I manually ran the job in the monitored system.
I read notes 1321015 & 1339657 relating to IDOC monitoring. 1321015 appears to be more relevant, yet it does not exactly describe my issue - it mentions the job BPM_DATA_COLLECTION* failing rather than just remaining in scheduled status which is what I see.
Anyone else see this issue before?
On a more general point - the standard BPM Setup guide doesn't really go into much detail on IDOC Monitoring, and makes no mention of what is happening in the background, i.e. the job BPM_DATA_COLLECTION* being created and run as per schedule. This info is found in a separate document "Interface Monitoring Setup Guide".
Is there any single document which describes fully what happens both in the Solution Manager and the Monitored systems when BPM is activated? For example, to describe which monitors require jobs to be run, which monitors require additional setup in monitored system, etc? A document such as this which describes exactly the process flow for each monitor would be very useful in troubleshooting issues going forward.
Thanks,
John

Hello John,
most probably the user assigned to the corresponding RFC READ connection that connects SolMan with the backend system doesn't have proper authorization to release a job. That's why it is only created/scheduled but not released. Verify if the RFC user on the backend has the latest CSMREG profile assigned according to SAP note 455356.
You can also check if the latest ST-PI support package is installed on your backend system as the ST-PI usualy contain the latest definition of CSMREG.
Best Regards
Volker
