The fact that the VGA default works, means there is nothing wrong with the video or the computer hardware itself, but something is going on the software level.

<![CDATA[ Re: Multi Display on K230 ]]> https://forums.lenovo.com/topic/findpost/1287/146526/147620 too many users are having this same issue with Vista (I had Vista Ultimate loaded before Windows 7). 
The card should show up in device manager if it was being seen by the software.  It is not in device mgr (no "bangs" showing where it would be an issue).

BTW, the Nvidia card does work in another machine running Vista (the Lonovo system had Vista Ultimate on it before, did not work at that point either).

<![CDATA[ Re: Multi Display on K230 ]]> https://forums.lenovo.com/topic/findpost/1287/146526/147977 No solution on the Nvidia 8400GS, but I ordered a Nvidia 8600GS XFX, which someone said they got to work.  I had to cuss and kick some, but finally DM showed the card, downloaded the 64 bit driver and now I have multi-Mon.

 

Resolved on 8600 but not the 8400
