I have a MSU GE63VR 7RE (Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz) and a 24" Acer monitor

When I start Ubuntu, the second monitor is black but I can see the mouse arrow.

When I turn the monitor off and on it is mirrored but the picture is frozen, the mouse appears on the second screen but the picture does not update.

When I attempt to join the second screen goes blank.

I find it almost impossible to work with one screen, any idea where I can start troubleshooting?

I reinstalled ubuntu but this time selected the download option and also the third part install option.

As you can see the guide is out of date, however ignoring that, I followed guide and ran

ubuntu-drivers devices

sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

The second monitor is now working perfectly.
