[SOLVED]Display options?

[omnishru]

Last night I formatted and put w7 RC 64 bit on my PC. Now, I've had this problem before but in a slightly different way, w7 picked up my graphics card straight away, and it reccomended the nvidia driver to install, when I went to set up my dual monitors, it had them the wrong way round. Basically I cannot remember how you get them the right way round, I tried changing the primary monitor but it keeps making it so I have to go left to get to the right monitor and vice versa.

I have fixed this before but for the life of me cannot remember how to sort it.

Any ideas? : )

Thanks.

You should be able to drag/drop monitors on the config screen to place them where you want them.

I see what you mean, I did this this morning but then the one on the left resized to a small screen with black bars either side (stayed the same res etc)

Hmm... Reset the monitor using it's own controls. If that doesn't work, shut down, unplug it, start up on only the one. Then shut down and add it back in.

Shouldn't matter, but are the two monitors the same resulotion? And are you using the latest nVidia drivers?

they are identical syncmasters, both run at the same res (until last night) and I'm using the drivers suggested by W7.

I will try booting with one, then plugging other in and adding it as an extended desktop (once I get home).

Really pee'd me off because I can't remember how I fixed it last time on XP.

Thanks though.
