Im running dual displays with my main monitor being a 19"crt and my secondary a 15" flat panel. Im trying to use 1280x1024 on the 19" but the 15" maxes at 1024x768. These settings work and run fine but when I reboot the 19" is always going back to 1024x768 because of the flat panel. (although half my icons are no longer visable and are off screen) I have to manually set it back to the higher resolution and thats getting quite tiresome.
Ive used Ultra mon for some time now and like it but it isnt helping with this problem. Its actually making things worse. Ultra mon always see's the digital flat panel as the first display even though I have it set in windows as the second. When I reboot with different resolutions using ultra mon my task bar is ending up on the secondary 15" and the 19" is still setting itself back to 1024x768.
These are both dell monitors being run through an ATI 8500, if I use the same resolution on both I have no problems, but I really need the higher res on my main and I cant give up the dual monitors, I just cant. I wont. I love dual display!!!!
I know others have done this succesfully, Help me if you can. Thanks.
