Hey guys,

Was wondering if anyone can help.

I'm really clueless already and have feedback on Dell forums - but got no solid answers.

Basically:

Windows PC with Radeon R9-280 --mini-displayport out---displayport--> P2214H

I get no display. The monitor just goes to power save mode.

I've already turned off power save on the monitor - but getting same result.

Any reason why?

DVI - no issue.

Based on your rig profile I think this is not your sole display?

If this is your 2nd or 3rd display then welcome to AMD, where the drivers screw up on multi displays.

I'm on R9 290 and the last known working driver that can display multi monitor properly is some 2013 driver.

Quite a lot of threads on this, one of them:

AMD Support and Game Forums - 14.1 Driver..Second screen no longer detected?

Thanks for the quick response!

This is - the only monitor. I'm not running eye-finity.

Any other ideas?
