    Thank you so much for your advice about powering the 2nd screen. I was told to purchase a h5-t hub and that didn't work. Thanks to you and this video, all I needed was a power adapter for the 2nd screen. I don't have to return my dual monitor now. Thanks again.

    This is one of the most helpful videos ever! You were the first video that came up when i searched for a reason the right side of my new screen set wasn't working. You just happened to have MY screen set and MY laptop and of course, the problem was a need for the second cable to feed power to the right side. I was seriously about to just return this thing as being garbage but it was such a simple fix (Naturally mentioned no where in the instructions). Thanks dude!

    If you're experiencing one of the monitors saying no signal, here is what to do. Go into display settings and you should see three monitors with one smaller than the other two. That means your computer is detecting it, but there is no signal going to it. Go down to multiple displays and click Extend desktop to this display and it should fix the problem.

    • @parajitorojo
      @parajitorojo Місяць тому

      I’m experience no signal in only one of the extenders. I tried both extenders only with the usb-c and they would both say no signal. Then I texted both with usb a and hdm1 and they both worked individually, but my laptop don’t have a second hdm1 so the other extender just won’t work with only the c! My laptop usb-c port has the lighting symbol just like yours so I don’t get it

    Fantastic tutorial. I kept not seeing the USB-C dedicated to the HDMI cable set and was going MAD trying every iteration... but the correct one... which you very clearly and easily provided in a no nonsense, worked first watch through vid.
    ** An aside for those buying - I don't trust the holding tabs on ea side... had my laptop slip out more than once so I just have the side screens on their own, which lets me put a cooling pad under my laptop anyway so meh... works fine if you have the foot print on the table.

      How do you have the screens connected? A full featured USB-C connection will power one screen with just one cable. If you are using HDMI, you must use an additional USB cable to power the HDMI monitor.

    thank you for the v helpful explanation. I have a Huawei D15 Matebook which only has 1 USBC port used for charging + 1 HDMI + 3 USB slots. your video helped me realise the charging problem, which i then solved by buying a USB to HDMI with Display link from amazon for 50 gbp (ouch!) and now i have both screens working. 1 from the native HDMI port + USB to power the screen and the 2nd from the converted USB to HDMI + another USB to power the screen. it leaves my USB C free to use as a charger and an unused USB port on my laptop...

    My usb-c isn't working, but the HDMI does. Is the usb-c absolutely necessary since I have other ports like usb-a?
    *Disregard, customer service was great and I got a simple adapter to use the screens with my laptop. They recommended a USB-A to HDMI with Displaylink. Since I use an HP, I could just grab a USB-A/HDMI adapter and plug-and-go.

    I wish you had explained how to work with an unsupported USB-C (the symbol confirms this). When I plug into the left side, the monitor briefly turns on and displays a message saying, “Go to power saving.” My HP is plugged into an outlet, but I need guidance on what to do. Please help-otherwise, I may have to return this or take a loss.

    Unfortunately, my type C to my HP computer does not power the monitor. So if I set up the left monitor with the type C to HDMI and the type C to USB, I can view it as a second screen. But if I duplicate that on the right screen, it states no cable. Both monitors are set up exactly alike but only one displays. Any advice?

      Hard for me to say - have you tried just using the HDMI on one of the screens without the USB-C plugged into the other? Also, there are multiple ports on the back of the screen (I think) and have you tried the HDMI cable in all of them one by one to make sure you are plugged into the right place?
