Second monitor gone. Now I have a full screen

Very odd but I am sure it is video driver related. I have been working dual screen over the weekend no problem. Now upon starting up I get dual screen but when I hit external preview in VP18? I get a full screen on my main monitor while the external shows the extended desktop with no vegas. I mean it is kinda cool to have a giant screen in front of me but kinda hard to edit with no editing screen LOL.

Drivers up to date.

Try unplugging and replugging your HDMI cable.

Yep tried all the obvious. Different ports on the back of card. Restarting machine. Restarting, then turning vegas on, then starting external monitor. Staring with external on and starting vegas. Everything shows up as the right numbered monitors in Nvidia, Vegas, and windows. I can move my cursor over to the external monitor like it is working just fine.

I haven't had that deep kind of issue. Always worked out of the box for me. Have your drivers auto-updated recently?

Like I say it was doing fine. Then restart today. The only other thing I can think of was windows did want an update. Hmm. Maybe I will go back and find it and delete it.

Ok. Here's what I got. I went into preview device and found device defaults button. I hit it and boom. External is back. It seems adjustment levels from rgb and vertical sync were checked. Why? I have no clue. Never touched anything in this tab. I might have a ASIO gremlin somewhere because every time I shutdown computer. Vegas reverts back to sound mapper rather than my Audio box ASIO driver. I have to restart VP18 to get the driver to show up again to choose i. I did send this off to Eric.
