We say 'fake' display but maybe is not the correct way to call this, anyway here is how to enable a virtual/fake display/monitor in Windows 8.1: Right click on the desktop, click 'Screen Resolution' Click 'Detect' button on the next screen (when click on Detect, a new second monitor was shown on the right of the main display).
- Update the device driver In the search box on the taskbar, enter device manager, then select Device Manager. Select a category to see names of devices, then right-click (or press and hold) the one you’d like to update. Select Search automatically for updated driver software.
- With respect to the graphics drivers, Windows 10 uses default drivers until it can find and download the ones that are best suited to your hardware. In doing so, it sometimes creates shadow monitors. A shadow monitor is basically a monitor that Windows 10 has detected but that doesn’t actually physically exist.
While I haven't had a chance to work with Win10 2004 (I assume your subject was a mistype) but I can tell you that some GPUs will not startup without a monitor attached. To that point they have a headless adapter for computers that will make the GPU 'think' a monitor is attached such as this item. https://www.amazon.com/FUERAN-DP-DisplayPort-emulator-2560x1600/dp/B071CGCTMY/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?dchild..=
Link was for demonstrations purposes this was literally the first item that came up in an amazon search. Google 'displayport headless adapter' to understand a bit more why they are needed.

- Support Windows 2000 to Windows 7. when you run virtual monitor on windows7, it will disable Aero Glass automatically, and it will be enable when virtual monitor exit.
- You can install or remove Driver with a simple command. Run WinDrvInstaller.exe -i for installing. WinDrvInstaller.exe -u for removing.
- Support both 32bit and 64bit.
- test mode support for developer.
- if you want do some enhancement for VNC part of VirtualMonitor. you do not care the driver, you can run VirtualMonitor with -dummy. the it will generate generate some random dirty pixels data. then you can debugging it.
- if you want implement a driver on a new OS platform, e.g. Linux. Then fisrt step, you just focus on how to implement the driver, and dump out the frame buffer to a file. then you can run VirtualMonitor with -tf filename. To check your driver is work or not. once it works. it is easy make it works with virtualMonitor. you can download an example ScreenRawCap.bin file here . then you run virtualmonitor -tf ScreenRawCap.bin. it is 800x600x32.
What is VirtualMonitor
VirtualMonitor is a cross-platform opensource software, it allows you to use compute, tablet, smartphone as a second monitor for your primary computer. The following snapshot is an example of using IPad as a second monitor.

No extra app needed on your IPad. just run your web browser with HTLM5 support or with Java applet support. So it can be used to support many devices easily.
Windows 10 Fake Monitor Driver Download
VirtualMonitor consists following components:
Windows 10 Fake Monitor Drivers
Kernel mode driver
Kernel mode driver will Create a Virtual Monitor device in Operating System, it act as a real monitor, it receving pixels content from OS,then save those pixels to it own framebuffer.Driver is a OS dependent component. We have to write diferent driver for diferent OS.currently, There is only XPDM driver implemented for windows.
User mode daemon
User mode daemon consists two major components: Best slot machines to play in reno.
- Driver interface. Comunicate with driver, to read dirty pixels, change resolution. etc.
- VNC Server comunicate with 'VNC Client', update those dirty pixels data to those device. VirtualMonitor use libvncserver
Cross-platform is one of the aim of VirtualMonitor. Driver and Driver interface which comunicate to User mode daemon are platform dependent, but all of other code are platform independent. Curently, only a XPDM driver implemented for windows, If you run VirtualMonitor on Linux. there is no VirtualMonitor driver. 'Dummy' driver interface will handle this case. It will not comunicate with real driver, it just generate some random dirty pixels data. it works like this:
If you look into Dummy Driver interface, you will found it has only few codes and very easy to understand. The purpose of Dummy Driver interface is: Provide a skeleton to show how to comunicate with user mode daemon. So if you want to develop a VirtualMonitor driver for Linux or other platform, then you can focus on the driver side, once your driver works, you can integrate your driver to VirtualMonitor based on Dummy Driver interface.
VirtualMonitor is still in the development stage, the source code is based on VirtualBox. Why using VirtualBox. it is great cross-platform opensource software. right now I am only one developper. I have to reuse opensource as possible as I can. And also I hope I can contribute to opensource. VirtualBox has some Guest Addition drivers, one of them is display driver. this driver will create virtual display adapter. When guest OS request to draw something on screen. this driver will store the content. and update dirty pixels data through Guest Host Share Memory Mechanism. I ported this driver works on host OS. and send out dirty pixels to another device through network. right now, still lots of unused code in the source tree. I will cleanup later.
If anyone interesting in VirtualMonitor, Please join me. lets develop a usefull cross-platform opensource software. Adobe reader free download for apple.
- Develop WDDM driver for Windows 7, Windows 8. Current XPDM can work on Windows 7 with Non-Aero mode, the Aero Glass interface will not working. I tested it on 32bit version windows7, it is works. for 64bit window7, it isn't work, as we didn't have driver signature. windows will refuse to run this driver.
- Develop driver for Linux
- Current code only support 1 client. Change VNCDisplay.cpp to support mutiple client.
- enhance current XPDM driver, Create mutiple Virtual Monitor Object, then we can extend destop to more than 1 device. VideoPortCreateSecondaryDisplay
- Build a Installer(.msi file) for Windows. and automatic install driver.
- Sign XPDM. hope ReactOS can help on this.
- Testing, report and fix bugs,
- Make VirtualMonitor works with USB, not through networking. Using LibUSB?
- Any other idea or suggestion.
- code cleanup
