I recently bought a USB3.0 to vga so i can have dual monitors in my studio, installed the driver, says it is working properly but when i go to display settings i can not see the option to extend my desktop to this particular device.

If you need any additional information please give me details on how to obtain it

Many thanks 😉

Thanks for joining the Graphics community.

I would need more information in regards to your system configuration:

Which version of Windows do you have?

Also, the exact processor model and the graphics controller:

Click the Windows icon, and then right-click Computer .

Select Properties .

Find System Type on the Properties window, and then note the processor model.

Thanks for the information.

Please bear in mind you are trying to convert USB into video and this type of adapters might not be supported by your computer model. Also, the computer manufacturer may impose restrictions about the features supported by your graphics controller when using adapters.

Intel recommends using straight cables such VGA to VGA, HDMI to HDMI or Display port to Display port.
