3rd monitor not detected

[dorlow]

I have an nvidia geforce gtx 1650 video card that supports 3 monitors. It works just fine in Windows. With Linux Mint, only 2 of the monitors turn on. I have loaded Linux in the past and all 3 worked then. Not sure what's different this time. How do I enable the 3rd monitor?

Have you checked to make sure all the cables are securely connected both at the monitor and the GPU? Windows, generally, is a little more forgiving when monitor connections are not secured tightly.

Let us know how you are connecting each of the monitors (HDMI, DP, etc) and what the make and model number is of the monitor which does not want to come on.

Please also give us information about your install by entering this command in a terminal: inxi -Fxxxrz
