Re: how to get the dual screen to work on windows 8
Try this: - Press the Windows Key, bottom left of the spacebar (Windows Flag) and the letter P key at the same time.
- You will then see 4 boxes pop up that you can click with your mouse. Left click on Extend, this should now turn on your extended monitor.
Yours is probably showing "Duplicate"
