old comp

new comp

Old computer has two gfx and three monitors, two monitors hooked up to gfx1 and one monitor hooked up to gfx2.
Gamiing computer has two gfx and three monitors, two monitors hooked up to gfx1 and one monitor hooked up to gfx2.
I've got the same version of OBS Studio running on both comps.
Scenes has been setup on my gaming comp and settings copied to the old comp.
On the old comp I can pick and chose all three monitors (display 0, display 1, display 2) for display capture.
On the new comp I only get One or Two monitors.
But, if I chose Fullscreen Projector I get to pick all 3.

Game capture of course works perfectly with the games supporting that, but I've got one game blocking it and older games running in a way I can't use game capture.

Why and how?
The gfx cards only have one dp each.
This was working a year ago for me and now it's not.
It's working on my old comp but not the new.
Is this your standard answer to all issues?
Not very helpful.
Thanks but no thanks.

In order to make the game/stream the best possible, having it run on the gfx with only one monitor hooked up seem to be the logical solution.
I want to run my 144MHz games on 144 and not 60MHz.

OBS can't display capture a display connected to a video card that it's not running on.
Physically move the connectors.

Then HOW do you explain it working on the other comp?
Check the picture provided.
Have I done the impossible?

I'll just wait for someone to solve THIS and I'll go on that solution...gl forcing Him to hook them all up to One gpu.

I'm messing with you Harold, you might be a helpful and nice person normally, but if you could see past the savages using only One or Two monitors and imagine the glory of a multi-monitor system you'd find out how easy it makes life of streaming/working.

What I mean is, the setup works perfectly on another computer with two gpu's, so I'm a tad stomped it stopped working on my main system.
The monitors Are being read by OBS, but not accessed.
