Important Notes!

• The monitors are powered on and set to the correct inputs. You can usually change the input using a physical button on the monitor. TVs and monitors connected via DisplayPort will "disconnect" from the computer when they're powered off or set to a different input.
• The Windows display settings. Do all of the monitors show up there? If so, please send us a support request using the Help > Support Request button in DisplayFusion.
• The video card drivers are installed and up to date. You can usually get them from the NVIDIA or AMD websites, or from the website for the manufacturer of your computer.
• The cables. Make sure they're plugged in tightly, and if that doesn't resolve it, try swapping them for other known good cables.
• The computer. Connecting the missing monitor to another computer.
• The monitor. Swap the monitor with another known good monitor.

• Try switching inputs on the monitor. This is usually done with a physical button on the monitor itself.
• Get up close to the monitor and have a look at the screen. If you can see a very faint image of the windows on the monitor, it's most likely that the backlight in the monitor is broken. In this case, the monitor will appear normally to Windows, but without a backlight, it's nearly impossible to actually see what's on the display.
