Product: Elitebook 840 G3
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hello. I have an HP Elitebook 840 G3 running Windows 10. I have an Acer monitor set up on the Displayport and a Sylvania monitor set up on the VGA port. My display settings are set to 'Extend desktop' on all three displays.
This works fine on the laptop screen as well as the Acer monitor, however on the Sylvania monitor, all it shows is the wallpaper/desktop background. I can't move my mouse to this display either. I had this similar setup working fine on my old Dell laptop, however I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong now.
Any suggestions? Thank you!
