the taskbar appears on the second monitor

I have a DELL XPS M1530 laptop with a GT GeForce 8600 M adapter and a second monitor running Windows Vista (fully updated). It has worked very well for more than eight months. Recently, I added a second user.

Now, when the second user shuts down the computer and I have the later start, the taskbar will appear on monitor two. Under normal circumstances, the other user has the taskbar on the screen one (as I was). I checked and the laptop display is set to monitor a.

How can I get the taskbar on the laptop screen when this happens?

I tried this and many other things. The problem kept coming back without rhyme or reason. Then, one day, it just stopped happening.

  • Scrolling Web page very slow on the second monitor

    I have two monitors. When I move the window of firefox for the second monitor - scrolling of web pages is very slow. Sometimes he computer freeze (I can't move the mouse cursor).
    I checked the other applications such as MS Word, Chrome.
    This problem is only firefox problem.

    This problem apears when the part of the firefox window shows on the second monitor (or even 50 pixels)

    Hey, I had the same problem and I solved it:
    1. - in the Firefox menu, display the Tools/Options.
    2. - unselect the checkbox "use hardware acceleration when available.
    This should work better now. Apparently the hardware acceleration makes the problems only when the windows of Firefox appears in a non-primary screen (don't know why). I suppose you know, but if you want to change your primary monitor you can do it from settings (right click on the desktop, then properties).
    Good luck!

  • iMac 27 "with the second monitor boots black with cursor

    I can't seem to find another discussion altogether as my problem starting special 'black screen ':

    New iMac 27 "retina 5K (end of 2015) running OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 with second monitor Samsung connected by Mini DP - DVI.  When starting, the two screens are displayed in black, but the cursor is available and can be moved.

    I have to make a hard stop and disconnect the second monitor to start at the login screen. Then I can reconnect the monitor and everything works.

    Any suggestions for a fix?

    So, I spent some time with Apple customer support. Several of the standard troubleshooting for problems of mystery, they came to the conclusion that there was an incompatibility of driver with the Samsung monitor at startup which is mucking things up, and I just have to accept starting with the second disconnected monitor then plug it in again after a successful login.

    Samsung does not write the monitor for Mac drivers (for some reason any), that's why the customer support figures that there is a hangup at startup. But why OS X recognize the monitor and run fine otherwise? Why only hang at boot time? And why my Mac Book Pro 2007 running the same version of El Capitan boot fine with the connected monitor? It has something to do with the Thunderbolt/mini-DP-to-DVI connection? I don't know, and I guess that Apple's Support is not either.

    I fell on a hack, which is as follows:

    1. start with the second monitor connected

    2. in the "black screen with cursor" hold the power button quite long to put the computer to sleep

    3 wake up the computer with the keyboard or trackpad or other

    4 and now the login screen will appear.

    5 log in as usual.

    6.

    I hope this helps someone. One day I'll get a more compatible monitor and it will not be a Samsung.

    They make nice dish, however.

  • Installation of the driver software window opens on the second monitor in a dual monitor extended installation of the monitor

    The "Software Installation" window will open on the second monitor in a dual monitor extended installation of the monitor

    I have a dual display setup. A 225WS 1680 x 1050 monitor LG is connected via a VGA cable and a VGA - DVI converter to a DVI port on a Radeon 6850 video card. The second screen is a Samsung HDTV set at 1920 x 1080 and connected via HDMI on the same video card. I have set up the screen LCD as main monitor and the Samsung HDTV as the extended display. HDTV is most of the time, but I use it at least once a day. This isn't a driver problem, because it happened also when I had an old Nvidia video card and it is fixed by a new installation of windows and setting up of screens from a square.

    The installer works great almost all the time except when I try to use some programs or Windows functions (7). When I try to start the MozBackup application or I pop in a new usb device and click on the notification bubble, both these windows (MozBackup and the "Driver software Installation" window) open in the center of the HDTV as opposed to the LCD (which is defined as primary). The problem is that the views are ~ 3 meters out and HDTV is mostly off.

    I sent a bug report to the developer of MozBackup because this part is perhaps a problem with its software or what old Windows functions and hooks it uses, but the window "Installing the driver software" (or who knows what other program Windows Basic) has exactly the same problem and is part of Windows.

    What can I do about it? I DIDN'T put the displays in any mode "clone" to have office in mirror between them. Is - this fixable somehow? I guess that is not a problem with the video card drivers because I used two different video cards with either the manufacturer or windows update drivers and the problem is the same.

    I'm talking about a window similar to this one

    Change the value of "1": monitor

    monitor =1

    '2' or whatever the value of your primary monitor is:

    wyzodir =

    ; Monitor: the monitor number where MozBackup window will appear

    monitor =2

    System main screen could be identified as '1 '. If you have changed the monitors, it can be used internally '2 '.

  • Proper placement of the Image on the Second monitor

    Monitor Problem.jpg

    I used a setup two monitor for awhile. 

    Recently I replaced my 19 inch right hand with a 24 monitor monitor inches. 

    Now that I extend Photoshop CC 2015 on the second monitor, the extended section is not in line with the section base. In other words, the upper part of the extended section is 2 inches below the base section; and the bottom of the extended section is the bottom of the screen. 

    My system is Windows 7 64-bit with a videocard GeForce 660

    Any suggestions on how I could fix this problem? In the display on the right hand monitor is set to full screen, the image appears correctly. I tried to use OSD of the monitor to change the location of the image, but this seems to be unable to solve this problem. 

    Above is a picture of the problem.  On the left is PS CC 2015; on the right is the extension of Photoshop.

    Right click on the desktop and choose screen resolution. Select the second screen and drag by the amount of that compensation is.  It's something that I discovered completely by accident during the addition of a third screen (Cintiq Companion 2).  You can drag above or below, left, or right and refine the position.  It's a trick, but I'm not quite sure if it's purely Windows code, or integrated in the video drivers (nVidia in my case)

  • Slow overview on the second monitor

    Hello

    I use two monitors with LR5, and the second monitor is the preview screen.

    I find the Preview on the second monitor to be very slow in the library and put modules:

    (1) if I'm the develop module, and I move to the next photo and zoom in the preview to 100% (or if it is already 100%), it take a minute, literally, for the preview appears correctly.

    (2) in the develop module, sometimes the display updates not well at all. If I adjust a slider on the Details tab, however slightly, the preview then updates almost immediately.

    (3) window in the library module, if I pass the main window to the single photo view and 100%, then, as I quickly browse photos, updates of the main window, but the preview is late.

    I work with Fuji RAF X-Trans files and maybe if the question? Updated jpg files almost immediately in the preview window in the two modules.

    Does anyone have a similar experience?

  • Win 8/IE 10: video Flash in mode full screen in dual monitor; video freezes on the second monitor

    All,

    At the launch of a Flash video in full screen when you are using two monitors, the video freezes at a still image on the second monitor. This happens in mirror and screen extended mode images.  The video continues to play normally on the first screen, and the audio continues normally as well.  This problem appears only during playback of the video using Internet Explorer, do not not Firefox.

    This seems to be a software problem, not memory or devices.  To be clear, the video is not stutter. rather, it freezes at a still image. I didn't have this problem using internet explore with the same configuration until I upgraded my laptop Windows 8.

    Here is my configuration:

    Windows 8. Internet Explore 10.

    Shockwave Flash Object: 11.6.602.167

    ASUS laptop computer connected to a HD LED TV via HDMI.

    GeForce GT650M graphics card.

    Core i7 and 8 GB of RAM.

    You think, what is happening? Troubleshooting ideas? Thank you.

    I just gave it a try on my setup triple monitor, but could not reproduce the problem.  I tried both stretching and duplicate the work stations, but they all work as expected.  If Firefox works well, then I wouldn't suspect your video driver but it is probably useful to take a look without worrying to do of course, you have the latest driver installed.  Then, try to temporarily disable hardware acceleration to see if that makes a difference.

    How to disable or enable hardware acceleration?

  • The second monitor connected to the Satellite Pro A100 "disconnect" himself

    Hello

    I use my laptop - Satellite Pro A100 (PSAACE) - with a second monitor with no problems until I did an upgrade to Windows Vista. After installation, the second monitor starts to show problems, i.e. that works intermittedly. Every 5 seconds or so the monitor "unplug" itelf and caps again. I hear the (UN) plug sound when she did this and the two displays flickers during this period.

    Can someone suggest a solution to this problem?

    I put t know what can be the problem but it sounds like the connection problem. Make sure that the monitor is connected correctly. Also try to test it with another external monitor. Is perhaps the cable or connector defective.

  • Satellite 1130-Z31: impossible to get 1600 x 900 on the second monitor

    I have a Toshiba Satellite 1130-Z31 (an old, but everything works well).

    Now, I have attached a second monitor with a native resolution of 1600 x 900 pixels.

    I put the second screen resolution to 1600 x 900, it is accepted.

    However, the image on the second monitor is ugly, and the external monitor´s what OSD says it gets 1440 x 900 pixel laptop computer signals.

    It seems that Toshiba sends an image with a lower resolution on the whole.

    I installed the latest graphic driver - no change.

    Or would it be a problem with a bad quality VGA cable or almost?

    Any ideas?

    Thank you
    Turtle

    Hello

    Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find the info which resolutions are supported for external screens, but if you can't get 1600 x 900 pixels which means that this resolution is not supported by the graphics card.

    What video port are you using? VGA 15 pins port maybe?
