Greetings.

I Have a monitor hooked up via VGA to my graphics card, a second hooked up via HDMI to my graphics card, and am currently trying to hook my TV up via HDMI to my motherboard but it is not working. Any suggestions to get my third screen working??
 
You will have to provide more specifics about your motherboard and CPU. Most Ryzen CPUs don't have integrated graphics, for instance.
 


My GPU is a EVGA GTX 1050 TI. My motherboard is a Gaming MSI Z170A with an I7 6700K for my CPU.
 


The issue is that I already have an HDMI cable connected to my GPU, that is why I'm trying to plug it into the motherboard. My GPU has no more slots available to plug anything into it.
