Dual Monitors

Hello,
Anyone know why windows will not keep the extended desktop setting. I
want my desktop extended to the left but everytime I restart or it goes into
the screen saver it defaults back to the right. Please Help

Thanks
Mark

Re: Dual Monitors

Try disabling a task called TMM - Transient Multi-monitor Manager and see if
helps. Do the following:
1. Launch task scheduler - select "Start" | "All Programs" | "Accessories" |
"System Tools" | "Task Scheduler" menu item.
2. Locate and select a task with name "TMM" under "Task Scheduler Library" |
"Microsoft" | "Windows".
3. Click "Disable" from the list of actions listed at the right pane.

Hi Mark.

I would suggest you use the configuration interface provided by the
graphics chipset mfg instead of the configuration interface in windows
as my experience is that the windows one is notoriously flaky.
