The second screen isn't staying active.
Hello, I'm in dire need of help. I've looked just about everywhere, and it feels like I've tried just about everything and I'm at the end of my rope with this issue. I don't want to buy a new monitor, but it might have to come to that. Long story short, this morning my second monitor stopped working, checked the attached video for the issue*. I've tried resetting my computer, dabbling with the display & screen saver settings (though, admittedly I'm very unsure what does what there), I've messed with the control panel a little bit (again, don't know what I'm doing there), and I've looked at the device manager (don't know what I was doing there). I installed Actual Multiple Monitors, but that doesn't seem to actually do anything for the issue, and even swapping HDMI cords did nothing to change my situation. Is there anything I can try to remedy this issue, or do I need to throw in the towel and buy a new monitor? *: For anyone who cannot view the video, here is a YouTube upload of the same video .

You're wondering if the system remains inactive even after you log in to Windows.
