  • Page 9: Troubleshooting

    4. Troubleshooting Q: Why is the display on the add-on monitor blank? A: If the monitor power LED is Green, wait a moment for the monitor to display the video, as it may take some time for the video to be displayed on the add-on monitor. If after a few minutes the video does not display, restart your computer. Also, make sure the computer is not in standby or hibernation mode, which will cause the add- on monitor to be blank. If the monitor power LED is Red, check if the connection is properly made. If the connection is fine and the problem still exists, uninstall the driver, unplug the adapter and reinstall the driver. Q: Why is the add-on monitor flickering? A: This is usually caused by a low refresh rate. When in “Mirror Mode,” increase the refresh rate of the main monitor.
  • Page 10 4. Troubleshooting Q: In “Extended Mode,” why does the add-on monitor have a black border around the desktop? A: This happens when the resolution used by the add-on monitor is larger than the resolution used by the primary monitor. To solve this problem, configure the add-on monitor to use the same resolution as the primary monitor. Q: In “Extended” mode, why does the cursor disappear? A: If you’re in extended mode but have not yet connected the add-on monitor, the desktop will still pan to the add-on monitor. It’s possible that your cursor has moved to the extended desktop and is no longer visible on the primary display.
