I have just gone to a dual screen setup and are experiencing some issues. I have identical monitors, 2 x AOC e2250Swda. Each of these monitors has 1 x DVI Port and 1 x VGA Port. My Video, MSI Radeon HD7750 has 1 x Display Port, 1 x HDMI and 1 x DVI. I have 1 monitor connected via the DVI Port and the other connected to the HDMI using a DVI to HDMI cable.

When I turn my system on 1 out of 2 different scenario's occurs:

1. I won't get any display on either of the monitors, I have to reset the PC and then they'll appear to work normally.

or

2. Both of the screens will display output but the main screen will be the opposite to what I have it set it to under settings and the resolution will be set at 1024 x 768, the second screen will be set as expected at 1920 x 1080.

I have the latest available drivers installed for the Video Card.

Any one got any tips to try and resolve this? I'm toying with the idea of re-installing Windows 7 and see what happens.

Dumb question, but did you set the monitors via Windows or CCC? Try setting them in both.

Just in Windows, didn't think I would need to do it in CCC as well. Done in both now, so we will see how that goes, thanks Mindovermaster.

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
