oooops new computer doesnt support extended desktop

[djbikeerrob]

I screwed up i never thought to ask if my brand new core I7 could support multiple displays ans guess what... it doesnt. now what do i do? hoster needs to use that second display to show the words correct? i am not sure yet if they will take it back and sell me a different one in all the specs i looked at multiple displays were not even mentioned. Any help would be appreciated by the way it is a lenovo y480 great specs on the machine it simply doent support multiple displays. am i as screwed as i think i am?

I'm surprised myself if your new I7 could not support multiple displays

Can you post the make & model # back to us, perhaps we could look it up and better inform you of how to overcome this.

roy it is a lenovo y480 wost part is they just told me since there is "nothing wrong with the unit they will not take it back

According to the spec I just looked up, it has an HDMI output socket which would allow you to connect to an external TV with HDMI connection socket. Now as this is not always convenient type of connection when in your local bar you can get adapters that convert that signal to an analog video or svideo output.
If you have a TV with HDMI input then just purchase an HDMI cable and try that for now. I will try and get you info on the Video adapters for you.

To add to the above, if you search for HDMI to video converter I came up with this: http://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Composite.../dp/B0047PDBP0

If you search you may find a better deal or someone else might know of a better deal for you.

According to this review on this site: http://www.laptopreviews.com/lenovo-...review-2012-04 your computer has a VGA connector so you could connect a VGA to video adaptor as these are cheaper than the previous type I mentioned.
I attach picture of the VGAconnection on your computer.

This is the type of converter you need to go from the VGA out. http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

hi Roy i have gone over every single correction and adjustment to windows it is now at the point where hoster no longer crashes but all i here from the speakers when i play any song is a click click click

[Roy Dennis]

1) Check Tools/Audio control, in playlist audio card window check which card is selected.
2) right click on th little speaker icon on the task bar select "Playback devices" in the dialog that opens is the speakers item set as default if not right click on speakers and set as default.
If you can see HDMI output icon right click that and select disable, this will only stop the sound going through the HDMI cable not the video signal.
3) select speaker again then properties then the levels Tab, now check the volume for audio output.
4) lastly right click speaker icon again on task bar, this time select "Open volume mixer" and check the levels there.

Have you tried un-installing, then when you re-install check the box that states do you want to remove all previous settings (or words to that effect) if that doesn't work either put in a support ticket or try this:
un-install Hoster, then use system restore to return your computer to the date before you installed Hoster on it.
Then do all the Windows updates again as these will have reset, checking as well those instructions described in the previous error message you received.
Now if you have access to it (check your account page) download and install 5.06 version or an earlier version you were using before this latest update, try that if that works OK then download and install 5.07, that will install 2 icons on your desktop a Hosterprior which will be your 5.06 and the ordinary Hoster icon that will be 5.07 both which should work just by clicking their icons.
