The most important thing is to ensure onboard graphics are enabled, this article may help you: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-1709601/multiple-monitors-outputs-gpu-motherboard.html

The monitor cannot be recognised when it's plugged in to a onboard video that is disabled in BIOS, you can check the device manager (type devmgmt.msc in start menu and hit enter) and see if it's listed under "display adapters", if not, you should be able to turn it on in BIOS, with options provided in the link above
E: To clear things up, what you are trying to do is run your graphics card and video from motherboard simultaneously, which requires both to be enabled. If you are unsure about the second monitor working properly you can quickly test it by plugging it in to your graphics card instead of your primary monitor (while your PC is turned off)

What is the name/model of your motherboard?
You can try updating the drivers for motherboard as a start

Try a HDMI/DVI adapter and use it on you gfx hdmi port , you can't use your gfx and motherboard's ports at the same time

this all ports my pc but my montherboad its good or bad ? can bears two monitors ?

RE: problem monitors - Some1 - 2014-06-07 17:21

There is no problem with your graphic card or motherboard. I wanted the name of it to easier guide you trough the process of enabling the motherboard graphics chip in bios.
Anyway, it should be something like this:
-Press Delete button when PC starts. (sometimes it's F1,F2,F3 or Esc, you'll see which one is what on the screen)
-Find the options for your onboard graphics ( example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtDkczrf5fI )
-Set IGP to be the first
-Exit&Save
Alternatively look at this from 2:00 minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8nMShuSfgI
If this doesn't work, try manually updating the motherboard drivers

RE: problem monitors - Some1 - 2014-06-07 17:58

Yes. Check the BIOS settings for stuff regarding multiple monitor support while you're there, but it's not advisable to change stuff without knowing exactly what it does.

RE: problem monitors - thuGzy - 2014-06-07 18:01
