However, when I go back to device manager to check the display adapter, it still shows the SVGA.

When I go to the dell website and download and install the video drivers, it gets installed, gives me the successful installation message window, and requires me to restart the pc which normally indicates that the drivers have been successfully installed and working. On updating the drivers from the device manager by searching automatically, it installs the Standard Video Graphics Adapter (SVGA) drivers. Unfortunately this is not the case with the 7020 models.īy default, after re-imaging, the display adapter shows the Video Garaphics controller which fails installing. Normally, I would go to dell website and put in the service tag of the tower and download the missing drivers and it would work fine. I look forward to hearing from you and the outcome on this.I have re-imaged imaged this optiplex 7020 from the standard image that we have at work. It is more expensive than the one you have (pasive) so it would be good to contact the OEM directly before making the purchase so you can be more confortable with the purchase.Īdditionally, You can ask them about the use of splitters with their systems, chances are that they can provide you with more options in terms of splitters to be used. However, the manufacturer of your device sells an splitter, that splitter probably was tested by them so you can try it out. Nathancoffey, thank you for the clarification on that, from our end as mentioned before, the different splitters or adapters available in the market haven't been tested, for that reason we cannot make sure they are going to work fine. However, when I connect them all to the VGA splitter and connect to the Intel HD 4600 graphics card VGA port my device manager does not recognize dual monitors and just displays 'generic P2P monitor' in the device manager. When I plug each in individually to the Intel HD 4600 card port the monitor is recognized in the Device Manager (this is Windows 10).

so it is essentially all VGA except for the port in the back of the HD monitor. I just got a One HD15 M to Two HD15 F SXGA Monitor Y-Cable (see example: B&H Photo Video) with the intent to connect dual monitors in the following way:ĭell monitor: VGA:VGA cable > VGA splitterĪnd then the VGA splitter goes in to the back of my Intel HD 4600 graphics card in a VGA port. One is a Dell s2340l with a VGA > VGA cable and the other is an HP LP2065 which has two ports and I have the following cables attached to it: DVI-VGA and DVI-DVI.

I have two monitors that are not the same.
