Hi,
Im trying to set up dual screens on my computer and my computer cannot seem to find the second monitor to display on.
The monitors I am using are
ViewSonic VA903b and ViewSonic VG2021m
When I use one of the screens on their own its fine. and both screens are VGA.
Outputs on my computer are VGA, DVI and HDMI. So I have brought a adapter to use the second monitor in hope that it works but it doesn't.
I still have both adapters (HDMI - VGA) and (DVI-VGA) and nither work,
As I say if you plug each screen in VGA-VGA on their own they work so it isn't the monitors.
I recently updated my drivers and it wont work for it doesnt know the 2nd monitor is there!
If anyone can help me fix this problem by telling me what I need to do (Step by step)
or link me to what I need to download or buy then that would help a lot
Here is a copy of my DirectX.that i just used:

Hi GraZeNation,
I recommend you reinstalling the latest graphics driver that can be downloaded at the following link:
Please make sure to use direct connections between the monitor and the system (no adapters). Using adapters can affect the signal or in the worst case no connections can be detected.
You can open the Intel Graphics Media and Control panel > Display. You access there and change the settings. Another good step is to install the monitor drivers to make sure all controllers are recognized in the system.

Hi GraZeNation,
Besides the steps provided above, I strongly recommend you updating the bios using the latest software provided by the manufacturer. It is important to say that using adapters can affect the signal or in the worst case no connections can be detected so please try a direct connection.
