I have an external monitor I was using for my other laptop which works fine, its an Iiyama ProLite E2207WSV. Now if I connect it up to this new laptop the monitor just has a breakdown and flicks on and off constantly, it tends to stay on for about 1-4 seconds, then it flicks off for about the same period. I have tried it again with the other laptop which works fine (that one is an Inferno 11").
Now I have tried making sure the refresh rates match, as I have 59 or 60 hertz as options. I have tried setting both to both settings and it does not work. I have tried lowering my resolution to as low as it will go on the laptop incase it was the 3k resolution causing it issues, I have also tried using extend, duplicate and 2nd monitor only, all cause same issue. So I am out of ideas... anyone else had any issues like this or suggest anything? as its great having more real estate on the laptop but I now have a separate monitor taking up desk space that cannot be used
