hello everyone, and welcome again! in thistutorial, we will learn, how to setup multiple monitors in windows 10. before setting upmultiple monitors in windows 10, i assume that you have already connected an additionalmonitor to your computer, either it is a notebook or desktop, and have properly plug-in allthe wires, and you may also require to configure some bios settings as well, to enable dualmonitor support. for instance, on my ecs, a55 f2, motherboard,i have to configure my bios to enable, dual monitor support, and i have connected onemonitor on inbuilt vga port of the motherboard, and the second monitor is connected to amdradeon r7 200 series pci express card. if you have properly connected both monitors,and have also configured the bios settings
properly, then you don't need to configureanything in windows itself. when you connect an additional monitor to your computer ornotebook, windows 10 automatically detects the additional monitor, and start displayingyour windows desktop automatically. however, you can configure some multiple monitorsettings according to your preferences. to do this, right-click on an empty area of yourdesktop, and then choose display settings from the context menu. if windows has alreadydetected and installed the additional monitor drivers, then you will see one and two numberin the preview pane, indicating that windows has already detected and setup multiple monitors.if you are still seeing only one number in the preview pane, then you can click detectlink, and windows will try to look, if there
is an additional monitor has been connected.if windows fails to detect any additional monitor even if you have properly plug-inall the wires, then you may need to look into your bios settings for any dual monitor supportoption, or you may also require to install the add-on vga card drivers, where you haveplug-in your second monitors. once you are done, and windows detected boththe monitors, then it is the time to configure some additional multi monitor settings. clickingon identify link will display numerical number 1 and 2 on both monitors, telling you thatwindows is assuming which monitor as number one, and which one the number two. if number1 and number 2 monitor are not as you want, like you want the number 2 to be number 1,and number 1 monitor to be number 2, then
you don't need to change wire settings, ormonitor's positions. you can do this right from the display settings window. to changethe position of monitors in windows, simply drag and drop the monitors in the previewpane, and you don't need to change the position of monitors physically. this setting determinesthat which monitor is setup on your left side, and which one is on the right side.but the next problem could be that, you might want to set the number 2 display as your maindisplay. then just select the 2nd computer from the preview pane, and then click "makethis my main display". apply the changes, and in an instant, your main desktop withall its icon and the taskbar will be shifted to your second display, which you just madeas your main display. you can revert back
anytime, by making your 1st display as themain display again. depending on either you have connected twodisplay to a desktop computer, or with a notebook, you might see different or additional optionsunder multiple displays drop down menu. like, as i have connected these two display witha desktop computer, i have these 3 options in the list.the first option is, extend these displays, which is usually will be the default optionfor desktop computers with multiple displays, and is widely used everywhere. this optionextend the windows display to both monitors, and ultimately giving you larger area forwork. let's first apply this setting, and see what we can do with extended display.the best thing that you can do with multiple
monitor with extended display is, you canmove applications between both display. to move an application to other display, justgrab it from the top edge or title bar, and drag it from one monitor to another. that'sit! so multiple monitors will make it easy for you, when you need to have an eye on onescreen, and work on the second at the same time. ultimately making you more productivewhen you need to work with a lot of apps in a time, and you may not require to minimizecertain applications, or switch between apps when you need to work on at least two applicationsat the same time. you can even play a video on one screen, and can work on your officeapplication at the same time on other screen. for any reason if you want to switch backto one screen, then you can do this from the
display settings window without actually disconnectingany monitor. from the multiple displays drop down, choose which monitor you only want tosee, either number 1 or number 2, and the other will be switch off right away.then you have the option to change the orientation of monitors. in orientation you have fouroptions, landscape, which will be the default for wide screens, then you have portrait,and then portrait flipped, so landscape flipped. if your both monitors have wider screens,then you may not require to change the orientation, as the landscape is best option for widerscreens, until you have settle your monitors in a different position. for instance, ifi have to rotate and place one of my monitor in vertical position for some reason, theni can change the orientation from landscape
to portrait, so the contents can be fit andseen nicely on that particular monitor, and there you have the example right away.and for any reason, if you have to place a monitor on a 360-degree rotation, like completelyupside down, then you can use the options, landscape flipped or portrait flipped, wherewindows will rotate the display to 360 degrees on an upside down monitor, and you will beable to see the contents properly. if you need to configure more advanced settings,like screen resolution, color and text settings, then you can click the advanced display settingslink, and here you can choose different resolution for both monitors, if they are different insizes, or can configure color and text settings as well.people having accessibility problems can also
enlarge the size of text, applications andother items that they see on the screen from the previous window. changing this settingmight require you to log out and login back to your user account.to quickly switch between different multiple monitor settings, you can also press windows+ p key to bring some multiple monitor options. as i told you before, depending on eitheryou are setting multiple monitors with a desktop or laptop, you might see different settingsaccordingly. so this was an overview about setting up multipledisplay on a windows pc. hope you may have like this video. tell us by leaving your commentsin the box below. you can also watch our video about setting up different wallpapers on multipledisplays. don't forget to hit the like button,
