Hy there,

I buy a dell t3400 bring with nvidia quadro pci epx with one exit and a cable to two monitors.

I connect them, but even with the latest nvidia drivers the second monitor is always in sleep mode. Can't show image...

In nvidia-settings the second monitor shows up and everithing appear to be normal, but never get out of sleep mode.

Even in boot only the first monitor show image, second is always in sleep mode. I only need to connect the vga cable to the card with the pc turned on and the second monitor go to sleep.

Anyone can help?
