How do I configure and add two screens?<br />
<br />

Got it — you’re basically there already 😄<br />
I’ll walk you through it cleanly for Windows (Predator 15).<br />
<br />
==== 1️⃣ Make sure the hardware supports 2 screens ====<br />
<br />
Most Predator 15s do.<br />
<br />
Typical ports:<br />
* HDMI<br />
* Mini DisplayPort or USB-C (with DisplayPort support)<br />
<br />
If you only have one HDMI port, you’ll need:<br />
* A USB-C → HDMI/DisplayPort adapter, or<br />
* A USB docking station (recommended)<br />
<br />
⚠️ HDMI splitters do NOT work for two independent screens.<br />
<br />
==== 2️⃣ Plug everything in (power on) ====<br />
* Laptop open<br />
* Both monitors powered on<br />
* Cables connected directly (no splitter)<br />
<br />
Windows should auto-detect them.<br />
<br />
==== 3️⃣ Configure displays in Windows ====<br />
<br />
===== Right-click on desktop → Display settings =====<br />
<br />
You’ll see boxes labeled 1, 2, 3<br />
<br />
Click Identify to see which screen is which.<br />
<br />
==== 4️⃣ Set display mode (important) ====<br />
<br />
Scroll to Multiple displays:<br />
Choose:<br />
👉 Extend these displays<br />
<br />
This gives you:<br />
* Laptop = Screen 1<br />
* Monitor A = Screen 2<br />
* Monitor B = Screen 3<br />
<br />
Click Apply<br />
<br />
==== 5️⃣ Arrange screen order (so the mouse moves right) ====<br />
* Drag the screen boxes to match their physical position<br />
* Example:<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight>[ Monitor 2 ] [ Laptop ] [ Monitor 3 ]<br />
<br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
or<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight>[ Laptop ] [ Monitor 2 ]<br />
[ Monitor 3 ]<br />
<br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
Click Apply again.<br />
<br />
==== 6️⃣ Set main screen (recommended) ====<br />
<br />
Click the screen you want as primary → check:<br />
✔ Make this my main display<br />
<br />
==== 7️⃣ Fix resolution / scaling (if things look weird) ====<br />
<br />
For each screen:<br />
* Resolution → Recommended<br />
* Scale → usually 100% or 125%<br />
<br />
==== 🔥 Quick keyboard shortcut ====<br />
<br />
If things ever go blank:<br />
Windows key + P<br />
* Choose Extend<br />
<br />
==== ❗ Common issues & fixes ====<br />
<br />
One screen mirrors instead of extending<br />
→ Display settings → Multiple displays → Extend<br />
<br />
Second monitor not detected<br />
→ Scroll down → Detect<br />
<br />
USB-C monitor not working<br />
→ Adapter must support DisplayPort Alt Mode<br />
<br />
If you want, tell me:<br />
* Exact Predator 15 model<br />
* What ports you’re using (HDMI / USB-C / mini-DP)<br />
* Windows 10 or 11<br />
<br />
I’ll dial it in perfectly for your setup 👌<br />
