So I turned off my comp last night, and when I turned it on today, the second display wasnt working. I plugged around with a few wires, and the display is fine, and both DVI ports work fine, but it WONT recognise both together.

I tried to remove all default drivers and still nothing.

However, Windows wont let the DVI port go above 800x600, yet the analog works fine on the "non working second display".

Its a weird issue to describe, but is there a way to "flush" the windows registry of what monitors were/are installed. I am not sure if I possibly ruined my DVI port because the ANALOG is working fine, but I cant get the DVI port to work properly above a certain resolution.

My first step is to make sure its not a windows issue, if it isnt, I can RMA the LCD screen.


*unrelated, but last night after I turned off my comp, my old mans comp blew its PSU. We are on difft sockets, and both run surge suppressors, but it is odd.
