I have a dual monitor in the display with a different total 3 registered. How can I get rid of one of the duplicates.

I accidentally added the same monitor in the display area where you can change the appearance.  I think this causes a problem when I click for a drop-down list, as the drop-down list will be grayed out until I put the mouse pointer in the drop-down list box list, so I'm able to use the right items listed lower down.  However, after I have click on the option I want to use, copy, paste, cut, etc, that particular item will remain on the screen until I have change the resolution and then go back to the original resolution.  I'm afraid to remove the monitor that I would delete that I'm not with my main monitor.

Thank you for your time,
Frank

Hi Frank,.

I suggest you to change the main view and check if that does the trick. To do this, follow these steps:

a. click Start and select Control Panel.

b. click view , and then select change display settings

c. click the type of view you want as primary (or display 1) and select the option 'Allow this my main screen'
