Trying to get my Sergeant's computer up on a dual monitor setup. Done this millions of times but his system is not cooperating. He has a Radeon 7000 series card with a single display as our other Dell & HP's with a DVI Radeon card. I have tried both a DVI to Dual VGA splitter and DVI to DVI & VGA splitter. With the dual VGA his monitor is just mirrored, windows does not recognize the second monitor. If I go with the DVI/VGA split, the VGA monitor shows, windows shows two monitors, but the DVI monitor is stuck in powersave, saying it's not receiving a signal.
I have tried swapping cables, tried switching the monitors around. Both will connect fine via DVI without the splitter, but the splitter is killing it. I suspect it's the video card as we have done this setup a ton of times but before I go harassing dell to give me a new card, I want to see if there's anything else I'm missing.
