In preparation for adding a Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD 500GB - M.2 NVMe Interface Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology (MZ-V7S500B/AM) I updated the BIOS of my Z97 Pro to version P2.50. I then did a clean install of W10pro. All's well except that one of my three monitors does not display. Only two appear on nVidia's control panel. I have a GeForce GTS-450 graphics card.

Question:

Is there a setting in the BIOS that's causing this?
Is there a fix?

Thanks, Kerry

Dear Kerry,

Thanks for posting your query to ASRock forum.

GTS-450 can support up to 2 monitors.

For further details, please refer to page 10 in the link below:

With thanks,

Hi ASRock TSD,

No sooner had I posted it started working as it did before the BIOS update and a clean install of W10Pro. All three monitors are working again; however, only two appear in the NVidia Control Panel.
Much thanks, Kerry

Update:

Again, no idea how it got fixed but, the three monitors are now displaying correctly in the NVidia Control Panel and the font size for each is perfect.
