Cannot set second screen beside first screen

[Carter Hollingsworth]

>> I believe your problem is originating from hardware setting in your
>> laptop.

> Thank you Carter, why do you believe that?
>
>Because with all my experience working on my laptop, whenever I subject it to connect to a VGA display the internal hardware automatically powers off the on-board display. Making the VGA monitor it's default display device.
>
>> Although it may be possible i do not know how. But I think
>> your hardware is preventing the displays from setting up correctly.
>> This is only a theory.
>
> How would I test your theory?
>
> To be honest I would not know where to start on this. I do not currently have access to my laptop to attempt any theories.
>
>> I would recommend still waiting for a more
>> experienced user to respond for I do not have any experience with
>> setting up a duel display on a laptop.
>>
>
> Then what experience does prompt the hardware-problem theory?
>
> Anyone who has tried and or succeed in getting a duel display between an internal display and a VGA monitor.
