Spyder4Pro not detecting secondary monitor

Spyder4Pro not detecting secondary monitor

2015-06-01 by azntwboy@...

Hello,
I have a Spyder4Pro and have been able to calibrate an old external monitor connected to my laptop via VGA port a few years ago, but I just got a new monitor that's connected with HDMI and the Spyder4Pro software will not detect the external monitor or show me an option to calibrate it. It's always set to attempt to calibrate the laptop display and if I try dragging the puck window to the external monitor, it jumps back to the laptop display.

Should I try reinstalling the software?
