    Dual displays problems

    I have a Alienware laptop with gtx 1070 I am running a Epson 1080 p projector out of the Alienware HDMI port

    I have a acer 32 inch monitor as my second display running out of the USB c port

    In display setting I mirror 1and 2 Laptop display with acer
    and 3 is my Epson projector

    when I enable dual display in fsx 3 shows up as 4 ??

    and then 1 is avail .. on the dual display settings

    however when I Choose my on screen choices
    the acer stays black screen ?

    if I choose 1 for main and Epson for secondary then that screen is black ??

    any thoughts

    The numbers in FSX don't match up to the Windows Display IDs. Long story for this. Just determine which monitor in FSX is the one you want and set it that way. I don't think I've tried with 3 monitors which is essentially what you are doing even though one is mirrored. It's clunky but keep trying different setups to see if you can get what you want. Just don't try to match the display IDs or you'll go crazy.
