Q: Dual Thunderbolt Displays On Bootcamp
Hello,
I just purchased a second Thunderbolt display for my iMac. When I boot up to OS X both displays work correctly, however when I boot up to bootcamp, only 1 display works. It appears to be a driver issue because the hardware works properly.
I also have a second smaller non-Apple display that works as a second monitor but not the Thunderbolt display from Apple.
I tried updating the drivers, however it doesn't appear to be doing anything. I tried to use the NVIDIA Display utility to detect another monitor but it only finds 1. I'm using Windows 8.1 on bootcamp.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Otherwise I have a $1000 paperweight.
Thanks.
Thunderbolt Display (27-inch), OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), Bootcamp

I guess this is the answer:
4. How many Apple Thunderbolt Displays can I use with a Mac in Windows 7 or 8 with Boot Camp?
Most Mac computers can support one Thunderbolt display using Windows. The iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014) and Mac mini (Late 2014) can support two, and the Mac Pro (Late 2013) can support up to six.
