I have created a custom monitor that is 2560 X 1024. It works seamlessly with any laptop that has an NVIDIA RTX 2000 series or higher. The monitor is not recognized by any laptop that only has the built-in Intel GPU. I cant figure out why as well as how to get the Intel GPU-Only laptops to recognize the custom monitor

Hi there @michael.utsugi1 and welcome to the NVIDIA developer forums!

Custom monitors usually use uncommon timings and EDID information that might or might not be recognized by GPU drivers by default. I am not surprised that a dedicated GPU has a wider range of accepted settings than a built-in GPU. Laptop graphics is first and foremost dedicated to the built-in screen and does not necessarily support all configurations for the external display connector.

Maybe worth checking with the support of the Laptop manufacturer?

Thanks.
