Hi all,

I have three 50" main monitors plus two 1080p touch panels connected via USB-HDMI, upto today this has been a great setup.

I tried to use Euro Truck Simulator, this requires using Nvidia Surround for the main screens, I set this up and had some fun in a truck. I had the dashboard on my touch panels :slight_smile:

Coming back to FS2020, i turned off Nvidia Surround but have now lost my touchpanels - they show as “Inactive” in windows and i cant get them active?

I have rebooted, unplugged and replugged the USB-HDMI adapter, turned the monitor power off and on, nothing works.

I can’t fly without these as i have no instruments - can anyone help please??

Found it…

When you come out of Nvidia surround Windows does not remember your monitor setup and turns off the USB displays. To fix it, go into Display Settings, select a USB monitor and press “Extend desktop to this monitor” and it will turn back on.
