Today, the editor of Huajun brings you carefully selected content. I hope you will support and share more. If you like it, hurry up and get it! .
Here's how:
1. Installation of dual monitors
Dual-screen display uses a dual-head output graphics card to connect two monitors. Almost all current graphics cards have dual-head outputs, one VGA and one DVI, two DVI, or one DVI and HDMI. When connecting one monitor, only use VGA or DVI (depending on the interface type of the monitor). When connecting dual monitors, connect the two monitors to the VGA and DVI of the graphics card respectively. If the monitor does not have a DVI input, you can use DVI to VGA to convert. Connect the graphics card's DVI to VGA, as shown in the picture below.
2. Dual monitor setup

2. Look at the picture above, select monitor No. 2, then set an appropriate resolution for it, and check "Extend Windows desktop to this monitor" to light up the second monitor, as shown below.
3. At this time, you can use the left mouse button to press and hold the open task window (press and hold the blue title bar of the form), and move the mouse to drag the window from one screen to another (Note: Maximized windows cannot be moved), as shown below.
4. Move the program to the extended screen and you can run it to its maximum extent. This extended screen can be understood as an extension of the main screen and a part of the main screen, so almost all programs can run on the extended screen without any restrictions (Note: You may need to install the original graphics card driver).
