I'm gonna start out by saying I'v been baffled by this and there is probably a very simple answer but I can't seem to figure it out.
HI, I have a HP w1907 lcd and it's 'optimal resolution' should be 1440x900 but when I set it to this resolution this message appears: Input Signal Out Of range Change Settings to 1440x900 - 60 Hz. Bonjour, j'ai eu un nouvel ecran plat BENQ losque je le branche un signal s'affiche 'input signal out of range ' puis il se met en veille. Je ne peut pas reprendre mes anciens cordons car ils ne.
So I have 2 monitors, 1 Is my main one / gaming one, and my other one is my work one that used to be a tv
The problem I'm having is when I turn off my second monitor, my main monitor will go black and display
Input Signal Out Of Range 1600x900 60 Hz
Then when I turn my second monitor back on and my main one will work again!
WTF!?!?
Some information
- Main Monitor: HP - VGA
- Second Monitor: Philips TV - HDMI
- Windows 10
- Graphics Card: AMD Radeon R9 390x
- All Drivers Updated
When I go into safe mode I can unplug my second monitor and my first monitor doesn't display the message. There is only one problem Windows thinks that my main monitor is my second one so it displays it at 1280x720 and it ALSO SAYS THAT IT IS THE PHILIPS MONITOR IN THE CONTROL PANEL and I can't change it.
I will put pictures later, as I'm away from my PC right now.

You might try this:
With both monitors connected and powered on, temporarily set the resolution and Hz on BOTH to something low that both monitors can handle.
Also, change it from 'extend these displays' to 'duplicate these displays'
Then restart.
Both monitors should now be showing the same thing at the same resolution.
Now see if you can set what you want to be the main monitor in Window's Display Settings to 'Make this my main display' and then 'extend these displays' again.
Restart and then you can increase the resolution on the second monitor.
