Default 1 Monitor In Dual Monitor Not Working

I have a 9600XT all in wonder and it supports 2 monitors. My monitor set to VGA 2 doesn't have anything come up on the screen and the light says orange. I have tested the monitor and it works when it is set to VGA 1 but not VGA 2. How do i fix this?

Yeah for Radeon card, right click on the desktop go to setting click the advaned button and then go to displays then turn them both on and make sure they are set up right.

Okay i changed which monitor was the primary monitor by switching the connections around but my secondary monitor is green now. Also what ever monitor I use for my secondary monitor it looks green. What is wrong?

Okay here is a pic of the green monitor.

well i would jsut check through your settign to see if you have anything in there checked that shouldtn be, and maybe either get a newer driver or an older one to see if that helps.

also wtf is up with the first moniter (the one that works properly) it looks like there is paint or water all over the plastic

It doesn't have the green when it is not with dual monitors. It happens to what ever monitor is #2. I have the lastest drivers for my GPU.

it clears the monitor of static-charge.

I'd check against another computer to see if it still looks green

The 2 monitors that i have tried they work fine when they are the main monitor in dual monitor but when they are the secondary monitor they have a green look. They also look fine when they are by them shelves.
