Start with shutting off one monitor during a cold boot.
Start with shutting off one monitor during a cold boot.
I have three monitors connected to my 3080 Ti system running Windows 10 22H2. After a CPU return, I notice one of the three—usually the leftmost—constantly appears disconnected. It seems I must right-click the desktop and enable it. When I connect just two monitors, everything works without issues, regardless of which pair I use. The left trio includes a Samsung G70A, an Inno 27M2V, and an older Asus PB287Q; the G70A tends to disconnect unexpectedly. It appears detected when I extend the desktop to it, but it functions normally afterward. No matter the cables used (DP vs HDMI) or whether I connect via internal GPU, the problem persists. I've updated drivers and tried different connections, but no solution yet. This issue seems to occur only after a cold start, not during a warm reboot. A photo from today shows this pattern clearly.
