Windows 8 Windows drops one of my monitors daily.

Hello Basher, Happy New Year to you as well! It sounds like you're facing a frustrating issue with your multi-monitor setup involving two monitors on your ATI Radeon HD card and one on your integrated ATI 3000 card. The problem you described, with the Windows system dropping the 3000 monitor, reverting to 2 monitors, and changing the display driver back to the ATI one daily, seems to be related to driver conflicts and system behavior. To address this issue, you can try the following steps: 1. Update Drivers for ATI Radeon HD and ATI 3000 Cards: - Ensure that you have the latest drivers for both your ATI Radeon HD card and the integrated ATI 3000 card. Visit the AMD website to download and install the latest drivers compatible with your system. 2. Driver Installation Order: - Sometimes, the installation order of drivers can affect how they interact with each other. Try uninstalling both graphics card drivers completely. Then, reinstall the drivers in the following order: 1. Integrated ATI 3000 card driver. 2. ATI Radeon HD card drivers. 3. Device Manager Cleanup: - In Device Manager, uninstall all instances of your graphics cards (both Radeon HD and ATI 3000), including drivers, and then perform a system restart. This will allow Windows to detect and reinstall the drivers cleanly. 4. Windows Power Options: - Check your Windows power settings to ensure that there are no settings causing the graphics cards to power off or go to sleep, which could be triggering the issue. 5. BIOS Settings: - Verify in your BIOS settings that both graphics cards are enabled and configured correctly. Ensure that the integrated card is not being disabled automatically. 6. Third-Party Tools: - Sometimes third-party graphics card management tools can interfere with Windows settings. Consider removing or updating any third-party tools you might be using for managing your graphic cards. 7. Check System Logs: - Monitor the Windows Event Viewer to check for any specific error messages or events that might provide insight into why the display configuration is changing. By following these steps, you should be able to stabilize your multi-monitor setup and prevent Windows from dropping the 3000 monitor and reverting to 2 monitors regularly. If the issue persists, you may also consider reaching out to AMD support for further assistance. Feel free to give these suggestions a try and let me know if you need further assistance!
