MacBook Pro 15, Dell monitor, Acer monitor
Have a MacBook Pro 15" and have had two monitors attached for years. One is an Acer, and the other a Dell. I keep the laptop closed and use the monitors as extended displays all the time (the Acer is probably set as the main display). The only change I made recently is to add MS Teams as Skype is going away. Now, unless I have the laptop cracked open about two inches, the Dell monitor won't display and gives me a message about the display settings. "The current input timing is not supported by the monitor display. Please change your input timing to 1920 x 1080, 60Hz or any other monitor listed timing as per the monitor specifications.'
I can't set the display setting for the Dell to those values unless the laptop is open; otherwise it shows me fewer selections. I tried resetting the Dell monitor to no avail and unplugged the monitor and plugged it back in. There are no updates for the display drivers and my Mac is up to date.

Hi, Chris,
No, I have a S2421HF, but I could not figure out how to start a new thread. I'll figure that out so you can ignore this.
Thanks.
