Using Only the Second Monitor
If your second monitor is larger than your main monitor (such as a notebook PC screen) or has a higher quality image, then you might prefer to use only the second monitor as your output screen. This is also a useful scenario if your main monitor is damaged or distorted.
Follow these steps to switch your screen output to the second monitor:
1. Connect the second monitor to your Windows PC.
2. Press Windows Logo+P. The Second Screen pane appears.
3. Click Second Screen Only. Windows 8 connects to the second monitor and uses it to display the screen output.
