Did Windows 10 update today and my PC audio stopped working, only have sound from monitors. I went to the sound settings area and looked at the output devices and there is only my monitors. I believe there used to be a Realtek thing there (or something else, I can't remember exactly). I also...

Thanks @Neemobeer for your continued help. I appreciate you taking the time to assist. And thanks @bassfisher6522 for trying to step in as well. That said, I cannot figure this issue out, Tripp Lite support sucks, EVGA support is awesome but they don't know why exactly it isn't working with the...

They were extremely unclear in their wording then, because I already knew about the cable types. EVGA support replied today and confirmed the same thing - the signal is automatically selected by the hardware depending on the cable that is used. I am using the DVI-D cable with the single flat...

Well after waiting a few days, Tripp Lite responded. I am not very happy with the "support" they gave. This is the only instruction they gave: "Verify the output of the DVI-I port is digital and not selected for analog." That tells me nothing. I have no idea how to do that. I've googled for I...

Thanks again. I just swapped the cables and ports in all combinations and have narrowed it down. The issue has something to do with the fact that the two DVI ports on the graphics card are different types (One is DVI-D dual link, and the other is DVI-I dual link). The DVI-I port is definitely...

Thanks, good call! I bypassed the KVM and now both monitors work! That's good to know, but bad because now I need to figure out why the KVM isn't working. Probably a cable problem or a defective KVM port. Will investigate further.... Thanks again

This is the item I have: https://amzn.com/B01DOB6VTU The box specifically says "supports up to four concurrent displays" so it should definitely be able to output to both DVI ports at the same time.

This is a dual PC setup. This new PC is just one of two PCs I am using with the same two monitors.

Issue: Graphics card appears to be only outputting signal to DVI-D connection but not to DVI-I for dual DVI monitor setup. (see more info below) Setup hardware: Graphics card: EVGA GEFORCE GTX 950 SC 2GB - card has one DVI-I and one DVI-D connection KVM Switch: Tripp-Lite 2 DVI port dual...

Thank you for the helpful reply

I am getting a new PC with Windows 7. What I would like to do is run this PC completely offline and never connect it to the internet. I want it to be a somewhat clean "local workstation" for editing photos and various things. I will have a separate computer for all the "normal stuff" like...

The issue cannot be fixed, and after thinking about it, I've decided to order a new (better) computer and after setting it up will begin porting over all of my files, applications, etc. Then when everything is on the new PC and I know it's working and I have everything, I will wipe the old...

Thanks for your input / help. I will look into this and your suggestions. Hmm I don't remember using Acronis to enable boot area recovery (I only created a bootable disk when I first got Acronis). It was a long time ago though. I think the 'unable to configure for this hardware' thing might be...

I'm back. I will try to summarize the best I can: - Level 2 Microsoft tech tried a bunch of stuff and then told me the only way to fix it is to reinstall windows. - They said we could do the install with the option to leave files and applications in place. - I had recently done a system backup...

More updates on situation: Ran Malwarebytes last night, no threats / issues were found. (Later I will probably run a couple other services / scans, for good measure) Just got off the second phone call from Microsoft support. The difference between today's support rep and yesterday's was night...
