    Hey all, I have an MSI GS70 running Windows 7 Professional. I am trying to connect an external display using a VGA to mini display adapter. The laptop recognizes the display, I can drag things to the second display, but the display stays black I cannot see anything on the screen. When I use HDMI it usually works, but the screen on my laptop will flash constantly and sometimes even force itself to restart before working properly. I'm assuming this is an issue with the drivers but cannot seem to find the fix.

    Thank you for any help.
