im running two mointors (BenQ 144Hz, 1ms High Performance 24-inch LED Gaming Monitor, HAS (XL2411Z)) but my computer control panel only picks up one of my monitors. Thats not the weird thing I have them both running right now and using both right now. Its driving me insane I just want to be able to change my main monitor for gaming to 144hz
any help would be amazing ive looked everywhere if you would like to talk just PM me and we can talk via teamspeak

Hello there nficonn!
Off the top of my head it sounds like your windows control panel may be overridden at the moment...
If you are running an AMD Graphics Card launch AMD Catalyst Control Centre and check it there. (Right Click Desktop, click AMD)
If you are running Nvidia then launch Nvidia Control Panel and check there. (Right Click Desktop, click NVidia)
If this does not help reply here and I'll arrange a teamspeak pop on time.

Uhhh well no. So you know how I have two monitors that are exactly the same and um well two Gcards well I didnt even think that my nvida would have one monitor and my onboard would have the other. Because they were the same it kept showing the same monitor name. I derpped pretty hard lets just let this fade away XD
